I can't imagine a high pressure system strong enough to push this baby around.

Actually it's the high over northeast Texas, now moving east, that has kept the storm from turning north, and dealing another blow to Huey Longville. So Texas takes a hit instead. We just don't know where, because the movement of that high pressure area is difficult to predict. It's likely it will split and Rita will charge up the seam.

I'm watching a Jet Blue Airbus 320 with a damaged landing gear dump fuel in preparation for an emergency landing at Burbank, Ca., airport. It's on FOXNEWS and MSNBC.

They're saying that the pilot will try a "soft field" landing.

Actually it did split, part will go southwest, the other part is heading east. Rita will charge up between them ... somewhere.
