"Rita is one mean looking storm... look at it's size compared to Florida...."

Pressure dropped to 920 millibars and winds went from 150 to 165 mph in a little under an hour. It is going to make a big mess.

No doubt about it, Galveston's seawall is going to earn its keep again.

I know. I couldn't believe it when I heard it had winds up to 175 mph. Just yesterday, it was entering the Keys as a CAT 1 hurricane. Its amazing how quickly they power up once they hit the Gulf.
