Re: Nothing to worry about. Don't blow it out of proportion.
Actually being on the east side can be almost as bad as being at the center, because of the way the wind moves
Katrina damaged the coast from NO to Mobile AL
Here's another interesting view\prediction:
AccuWeather, Rita's Projected Path (click)
The predicted size with time is a new feature ... I would also like to see iso-lines for cat1, cat2, cat3, etc winds.
Of course the project that we had set up for work just south of NO was relocated last week ... to Texas City ...
I'll let you know the next location so we can predict the next hurricane
ps -- why has there never been a "Q" hurricane?

Re: Hurricane Naming Conventions
ah
but just think of the poetic justice of a hurricane named

Coming back for more?
Has anybody noticed this?
AccuWeather, Rita's Projected Path (click)
Maybe not strong winds, but lots of rain?

Re: Coming back for more?
and of course if it swings a little wide you get it full bore?
looks to me like those levees get another dose of testing, especially with NO on the full wind side and it pushing waves across the lake?

Re: Coming back for more?
Looks like AccuWeather is the only one with this forecast
Weather Underground has
Hurricane & Tropical Cyclones | Weather Underground
As does NOAA
REMNANTS OF COLIN

Re: Coming back for more?
it's below tropical storm level, so it should be just a big rainstorm
do watch out for tornadoes - that is the worst threat from these after landfall
