Re: Left out Info...

Clark,

After reading the 1PM CDT update for Rita, I'm a little perplexed. It stated that rita was 435 SE of Galveston moving at 9MPH. It also shows that landfall will be sometime around 7AM on Saturday. This is my question:

At 9PMH over 43 HRS is only 387 miles. What happen to the other 50 miles that is stated in the NHC perdiction of landfall?

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