Rita rages

Thinking of Jane, David, Ranger, and Angel, our biblioblogosphere citizens in Houston, as Hurricane Rita approaches. Thanks to Mark for collecting those links. Mark, like me, lives in the Midwest where we worry about tornadoes and The Big Earthquake on the New Madrid fault line. Hurricanes have a whole higher level of stress because you know they are coming for so long ahead of time.

This is from the most recent update by the National Hurricane Center:

...RITA BECOMES THE THIRD MOST INTENSE HURRICANE ON RECORD...

And there's still a lot of warm Gulf water for it to pass before reaching the coast.     #
