Since this is becoming a slumber party instead of a supercharged thread, (and it is my final post of the day), I'm going to violate the 50K rule and post NOAA's "IMAGE OF THE DAY"...

I'm sorry that I don't have the facility to make this an unchanging image, instead of this beautiful enhanced IR pic of Rita at landfall --- sorry about that --- perhaps someone will take the trouble to store this beautiful picture on some more permanent website, and provide us all with that link.

Thanks. Cool. Nite.

Done.

Slumber party, huh???

Are you saying you are bored???

I will tell you what bored me----the same pictures over and over on Fox News today...jeez...

That is why this thread has been so fun tonight--but, you might not be QUITE as enthralled by flatware as you are a hurricane...lol

Goodnight....maybe Rita will circle around and become a hurricane again...

Great pic.

If there will be a Rita loop, when would the first turn most likely take place, do you know? Would it be soon if it's going to happen? And is there a point where a loop would be pretty much impossible given the current atmosphere? (Sorry, I don't know anything about weather stats, maybe these are stupid questions.)
