I've heard the electricity was off for only 6 1/2 hours overnight, that was more than enough to kill my servers. But once I get home, I should be able to have everything back up and running. Right now, that's looking like Sunday night. Hopefully not too late Sunday night, I want time to put things back together. Rita destroyed the coast at the Texas/Louisiana border. NHC did a rather poor job in forecasting Rita's position, but hurricane tracking is a poor technology at the moment, so I can understand that. The latest on Rita shows her losing strength over east Texas. She'll continue to weaken, and it looks like the models have her pushing off to the east within a few days.

But the technology that we have for tracking hurricanes today isn't perfect either, and the NHC understands this. This is why they have that "cone" of where it could landfall, and where it made landfall was within that cone. Still, you can never overreact to a category five. Post a Comment |
