Just heard on FOX news that there is a possibility that Rita might go back into the gulf. Can it rebuild again? They will be watching it.
Well, let's just hope she runs out of rain before she does that......

She isn't running out of rain, unfortunately. Prayers for Vermilion Parish and lower Iberia Parish as they are still flooding.

No, honey you don't. Not fun and not a hurricane party. The news is slow getting around to some of these obscure Parishes...we are looking at flooding and more than likely death. Tomorrow will bring this more to the forefront.It isn't likely to have a good resolve.

Thankfully it doesn't look like she did the catastrophic damage Katrina did. Blows my mind that many in New Orleans leftover from Katrina stayed.......I don't know that anyone should risk their lives to save them...AGAIN! JMO.

New Orleans May Be Pumped Dry Again Soon
NEW ORLEANS - Areas of the city newly flooded by Hurricane Rita could be pumped dry again within a week after levee damage is repaired, far sooner than initially predicted, a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers spokesman said Sunday. Workers dumped rock and sandbags into breaches in the city's Industrial Canal throughout the night and were expected to complete the repair Sunday, said Mitch Frazier, a spokesman for the corps. The storm surge created by Rita eroded repairs made after Hurricane Katrina and sent water surging back into the already devastated Ninth Ward. Once the breach is closed, engineers now believe the area could be dry in a week, Frazier said.
Federal officials had said Saturday it would take two to three weeks to pump out the water delivered by Rita. The water level in the Ninth Ward already had dropped dramatically on Sunday, a day after Rita blew ashore along the Louisiana-Texas state line, and the sun was shining.

Latest word is that it is going to be absorbed by another low on Monday/Tuesday, and so Rita will then cease to exist.Rocky said:

that's good to hear, just before it was ready to hit, it looked like part of the storm was being sucked away into a monster building up on the other side of Florida...
looks like that has calmed down also today...
I hope for all of our southern friends that we've seen the worst of what's coming for this year...
