Re: Rita Nearing Landfall at the Texas / Louisiana Border

Looks on radar to be more ragged and moving northwest

This will hit within 3-4 hrs totally and begin to weaken.


To my eye even on IF sat the eye looks worse and worse.

I would think it may weaken some yet and maybe only a cat 2 when it hits if they track it right up till landfall.

BTW is this storm as bad as Andrew when it hit the second time? just wanted to know due to a post early today.
