Re: Category 2

Margie,

I don't agree with that assessment of shear. Yes it is there however sligh, but will back off when Rita solidily gets into the GOM. There is nothing keeping Rita from strengthening to a poss CAT4/5 in 48-72 hrs. Do I think she will weaken prior to landfall wherever that maybe, well it all depends where of course, because of the layout of the coast is not the same in all locations.
