Re: curvature of earth....and distance from equator

Pry,

I would not think that far east is called for. The upper air dynamics won't allow for it to move that far east. But that is not to say, that the Panhandle won't start feeling the effects though. Remember, Rita is a rather large storm now, almost the size of Katrina. So you should start feeling her tonight in not by late this afternoon.

When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center.
