Anyone in South Florida? Not good there for sure.
I'm monitoring it on my mocked but still accurate weather website, which actually for you ladies there would be a good site, since it's based over in your neck of the woods.Here's the address-it does btw, take a while to load but then I'm on dial up.

Feel sorry for all the poor La people moved from Katrina who are now in the path of Rita, enough to make you paranoid.

It will only rain.... so long as you are on high ground and not underneath defective levees, you'll be okay.

(don't move into the Trinity River floodplain)

We never get much effect this far inland (150 miles) and you're about 250+ miles inland. I may, however, have to go help my parents evacuate from Corpus Christi. as if I didn't already have enough to do!
