I think they only do a certain number of names per year (around 20) so not every letter in the alphabet is represented.

21 names, where Q, U, X, Y, and Z are not used(you try coming up with some reasonable names with those letters!). .

Hurricane Zoltan! 😀

Hurricane Zombo 🙂

Hey, judging by the storm tracks, if it continues according to those forecasts, Pres Bush will be closer to where it hits when he's on his next vacation 🙂 Quicker response?

/sorry, couldn't resist p&n comment


btw, someone mentioned the red line is a perfect NO hit?! Did the map change or does the person posting that need a lesson in geography?

Damn speculators, though if Rita was a direct hit on Galveston/TexasCity/Houston like it is perdicted to it would take out a very very large chunk of the petrochemical refining industry.

Hey, time to hike gasoline up another 50 cents per gallon. I mean, it actually fell below $3 a gallon in phoenix a few days ago so they need another Hurricane to save the poor oil companies!

i wonder what the apartment complex would do to prevent hurricane damage?

Someone update the title, it's Hurricane Rita now.:Q

Tropical Storm Rita

Please shut up with the storm updates. Seems the norm now is everytime there is a cloud on the horizon some dolt here feels a need to make a post of gloom and doom about it. I live in south Florida and I don't give a crap about it.

yeah on all the prediction maps this is heading right for houston/galveston.... Im about 70 miles inland but right on the track of this hurricane if it ends up where the weather people expect it to be.

[mitmot]

I am wondering the same thing, if this thing gets big enough (cat 3+) I am not going to stick around to find out.

If it hits Texas it will be a 5 at landfall. The gulf is the warmest right now, it will rapidly strengthen once it gets pas the keys.
