The max winds will do the secondary damage. As with Katrina. Rita's storm surge is probably going to be responsible for the primary damage. From the coastline to Interstate 10. What the water doesn't or can't damage or destroy, Rita's winds will finish off.
Lastest Vortex is showing a circular 25nm EYE. So you virtually have an F2 Tornado that is 25nm wide. Nearly the same size as Katrina's Eye.
I heard Stephanie Abrams quote someone this afternoon. "Hide from the wind, and run from the water"
