It looks like they forecast a strong Cat 4 at landfall. As we've seen with this storm, Rita has always been about 10 mph above the blue-line. We shall see. Also the table for wind speed forecast is 'N/A' for 36 hours. Odd.
Whoaaahhh! Am I reading this right? 72 hours out from now, puts the storm close to or over Dallas, according the models. The blue line indicates still a Cat 1 or just below. Our local newscaster on Fox4 was saying that it was going to be a Tropical Storm by the time it gets here.
That is going to put a very large dent in the entire state of Texas.
