Hurricane Rita

[TheBlackOut 7]

In only 30 hours this tropical depression has made it all the way the a Cat. 5 Hurricane with 165 mph winds expected to increase, let me remind you Katrina was 175. This storm is most likely to hit Galveston which is very most likely to have storm surges up to 10 ft. or more. I ask for you guys, please, keep everyone in this storms way to pray for them, including the people affected by Katrina, remember, alot of them came to Texas to stay. Some moved to the coast of Texas, and this is happening again for them, please keep them in your prayers. Pray that this hurricane weakens and not strengthens as well, I live in Texas, DFW (Dallas, Fortworth Area) and they said, if this hurricanes stays at 165mph, the DFW can have up to 90mph winds, and tornadoes aswell. Please just keep this in your thoughts.

I feel your pain.

 

I had half my family relocated becaase of New Orleans, and now they're saying if Rita turns towards New Orleans that it will only take 3 inches of rain to break the "repaired" levees.

 

And if it turns towards Houston, thats just as bad. All those people that just left that party are now back int the path of another hurricane.

 

Last niight and the night before we had 75 MPH winds in St. Louis. And we arent even close to the Coast.

Its scary about the weather here in the U.S. In Minniadolus(Can't Spell)

[Cygnus X-1 12]

theres Tornados all the time.

 

But a few are F5s and shred everything they come across

 

I wonder why they dont name the really devastating Tornados ?

Probably don't last as long, I know there are tornadoes all the time(I live in Texas), but not in Minneapolis very often, expecially in the downtown areas....

Hehe, North USA(Hurricanes, Blizards, and rarely tornadoes) South USA(Tornadoes, hurricanes, drought) West USA (EaRtHqUaKeS, volcanoes, possibly a tsunami) and East USA(Tornadoes, floods, hurricanes)

 

Big land, big problems....

All we need now is a meteor hitting the earth so all you eople could see its the end of the world...

 

Oh wait! theres one headed right for us!

 

It''ll take a couple of years...but it will happen...

[Cygnus X-1 12]

you forgot the midwest !!!

 

The midwest does house somewhere around 1000 ICBM's ya know :wink: :wink:

[Luk3us 63]

Ahh... Its nice being in NZ... Only thing I have to worry about is a Tsunami... Well not really, I'm pretty far inland.

Agree

 

It would be pretty scary when you awake in the middle of night when a tornado is coming to you. Luckily I'm in the equator, so no tornados.

New Orleans flooded again.

[Doctor Destiny 41]

And that's a ****ing joke to you? If I could ban you, I would... just for THAT.

[Guest MadBadger]

.... theres no one there.... they didnt build the walls back up high enough not my fault.

[Guest Rabbit]

There are still people there... there are hundreds, and maybe thousands of people still stranded.

Wow, we tried, our main goal, help people, then the levies, we weren't expecting this hurricane. We can always fix cities and walls, but lives? Those the things we can never restore. Not like England came to help repair the levies.

[Cygnus X-1 12]

the Army Corps. of Engineers had only like 3 weeks to repair levees.

 

actually, it was less because of the riots and shootings.
