Hurricane Rita

[GT2000]

This has been quite a fucked up season, and it's still got a couple months to go...Rita is now a Cat 5 with 165mph winds, currently slated to hit somewhere between Galveston and Houston on Saturday.

They've already got the highways on the east coast of Texas packed, I don't blame them, they were quick to order evacuations for the FL keys after Katrina. I know Cody (thatsmypunk) plans on going to Dallas I guess, he's in Orange, my grandfather is in Beaumont which is right next to Orange, not sure of his plans.

With this, gas prices are about to start going up again, this after they just started dipping to more reasonable prices, they've been closing off rigs to prepare for the passing storm.

Kinda fucked up also, all the evacuees from Katrina that are now in Houston, might have another big one to deal with...however, they should have put them a little further from the Gulf Coast.
