Woe to the fucking wicked.

She's in Baltimore today.

It was on the news last night.

Not to rain on your perfectly good joke.

Ann, that's a ferret.

According to the Weather Channel, there were buses in Galveston to evacuate people who had no other way to get out.

Looks like TPTB have learned at least one lesson from Katrina.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Looks like TPTB have learned at least one lesson from Katrina.

And I'd say that lesson is: Don't Fuck With Residents from the POTUS' Home State.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Oh, man. From my husband:

As of 4:05pm, eastern, Rita is a Category 5.

And it looks like it'll hit Crawford just about dead on, after it goes over the coast..

TWO Cat 5 storms in less than a month? Everyone in Texas, please be safe and please take care.

Which makes, what, 5 in the last 35 years?

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Well, actually Katrina was a 4 when it made landfall--it was only more destructive than 5's like Andrew and Camille because it hit such a vulnerable area and because it was unusually large.

Susan, Katrina was at the uppermost limit of Cat 4 - something like a six mile an hour difference, and she had horrendous backdrafts.

This one's going to suck. Damn it, I have friends in Houston.

Well, crappity, ND. Much steer-clear-of-Houston~ma for them. Although, what I'd really like to see is for Rita to just fall apart at the seams and wimp out on us. Not like it hasn't happened before, but I've no idea if the weather is such as to encourage that. It's been a very hot summer everywhere. I feel bad for the Texans of all communities right now.
