"the reconnaissance mission scheduled for this morning was scrubbed
due to electronics problems on multiple aircraft."

Bush's fault.

Looks like most of the models have Rita hitting south of Galveston Bay/Houston but north of Corpus Christi.

JMO and FWIW, the best case scenario would be if it hits sparsely populated Kennedy county home of the huge King Ranch.

I thought maybe Beven had a Weegee (sp?) board? Maybe he just had a wedgie?

NautiNurse ~ could you please add me to your "surf's up ping list" - at least for Hurricane Rita, anyway. I'm going to need to try to stay on top of this one, I think.

Thx!

Yikes, 120mph already.

And to think, just 24 hours ago she was still a 70mph TS.

Actually I'm wondering if he didn't pull the trigger early because, since the recon flight was scrubbed, they were just using the last frames of data they got from the Key West
WSR-88D and extrapolating.

Well, the models are bunching up looks more like Rockport, Port Lavaca, Port O'Connor...same place CARLA went in back in 1961. I doubt she'll trend much further south than that. Yep, the King Ranch would be perfect 200 miles of ranch land.
