Re: Category 5 Hurricane Rita Moving Westward in the Gulf

Technically, you can always say that. Models are at least based on 6 hours old data, and the GFDL, one of the more accurate, is usually based on 12 hour old data.
If you say "we have to wait for the new data to be put in" then we are technically always waiting. These things take time to run.

P.S. - if you're writing here, change "Katrina" to "Rita" in the subject - it will lessen the confusion caused by MikeC having too much Katrina on the mind when he started the topic
