I was looking at a map from the Mobile Press Register that shows all the platforms in the gulf...and the refineries on the inland coastal areas. Right now...she is poised to go inbetween a major group of refineries on the texas,la coast, and the ones near and around baton rouge, new orleans...(I'm thinking 75-125 east of the texas/la line) if she hits the texas, la coast....there are 5 major refineries there. she will NOT miss the thousands of oil rig platforms....she ought knock a bunch of them out..since they are "intelligently" designed for category 3 only, and there are a lot more of them in her path, than was in Katrina's look for gas to spike to 5.00.....and hold for quite a while if Rita builds to a cat 5, and comes in as a cat 4 or so... |
