WEDNESDAY: RITA HITS TEXAS LATE FRIDAY NIGHT BETWEEN PORT LAVACA AND GALVESTON AS A CATEGORY 4 OR 5. CARLA'S PRESSURE TO BEAT IS 935. A MAJOR SHOT OF COOL AIR INTO EASTERN THIRD OF THE NATION SIGNALS END OF SUMMER PATTERN.

1.) No major changes on Rita, the though timing and end game path tweaking will be needed later as we get closer to landfall. Expected landfall is southwest of Alicia, but northeast of Carla, the last two category 3 or greater storms to hit here. Comparisons to Carla to be contained in later day disco. Model swings will not influence forecast here until at least tomorrow, if ever.
