he is very surprised that a storm with the low pressure that this storm does have.... is not a hurricane, waiting like everyone to hear what recon and nhc decides.. but as he says..its nhc's call

and also surprised as we all are that it never became a hurricane last night

agreed...went to sleep at midnight and thought it would easily be a strong 1 by morning and never did it..
woke up at 4am to heavy rain band, very heavy and woke up at 7am to what looked like a replay of miami and georges.. over preparation (which is good...better safe than sorry) and just a lot of wind

breezy, blustery..waiting for an hour or so and probably going out

announces now it is Hurricane Rita

So...bryan is no longer surprised on that one

guess bastardi can stop clenching his teeth too
