Good gracious. What the heck is that?
She better not head back into the gulf for a 2nd swipe at Texas!!
Maybe it is heading back to NO.
Phase I ended today.
Phase II is the massive rainfall for the next several days (maybe flood out the enire city of New Orleans again???) as it heads south.
And, potentially, Phase III is Rita re-entering the Gulf of Mexico - and who knows, maybe even reforming into a hurricane again - to hit Texas again (or, perhaps more probably, Mexico).
Stay tuned, everyone! This is the storm that refuses to surrender!
