Super Hurricane Rita is roaring for the Texas Gulf Coast at a clip of 10-13 mph and carrying winds of 125 mph. With it comes a storm 410 miles across and potentially ten inches of rain. some forecasters believe that the East side of Houston will be flooded and I-10 submerged before the eye even crosses the shoreline, although since the storm is a little East that probably will not occur, but I-10 will be closed for sure in places. As the Super Cat Five Hurricane moves onto land it will wind down to Cat Three and is likely to bring with her a storm surge of 15-20 feet high, that is over the seawall height at Galveston, so it is good thing they will dodge the bullet this time around. As this water surges into the Houston Ports Channel, it will rise even further like a giant little title wave taking out anything in its way, although officials will makes sure there is nothing in the channel at the time, as there will be nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.

If you will remember Tropical Storm Allison and it deluge on Houston you will begin to see the problem. Now add in Storm Surge and possible Category III, IV or V winds, there is no city in the United States that is that tough. Currently Super Hurricane Rita has winds of 175 mph and the center has a low pressure of 897 mb, making it the third largest storm in US History.

There are no Hotel Rooms in Texas anymore and most of the Hotel Rooms in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and a good part of Florida are all filled up from evacuees of both Hurricane Katrina and Rita.

What we have now in Houston is a problem, think about it.
