Re: Hurricane Rita Tracking West Northwest in the Gulf

To say, "some weakening is expected" when Rita is passing over what looks like a pretty significant potentially hurricane strengthening eddy is somewhat irresponsible in my opinion.




To be fair, when it was stated , Rita was Cat V, now it's Cat IV, right?

I agree that either one means "leave now" if you're in the path, but the statement was correct.
