Re: Rita interfacing with the Cuban Coast?

I'd agree that the temps aren't as high as they were with Katrina but I wouldn't say they've cooled off several degrees. The problem with those SST charts is that they don't take clouds into account, so out of all the pictures you have to look for the 1 or 2 that clearly show a specific area that isn't covered with clouds. Note that Florida Bay (between the Keys and the FL peninsula) has the warmest SST's anywhere.
Here's another SST source that gives a better composite temp.
