There goes another $200 billion. If this keeps up pretty soon we're going to be talking real money.

I think it will be much higher - major petrochemical area. Ouch!!!!!!

BTW - Look out for the price of natural gas. This heating season is going to hurt, very badly.

Yeah, we were finally headin' south this week and now were back to waiting some more. Most of the crews in NO have been pulled out for now. I sure hope Rita knows to leave those refineries alone.

Only the people in the Southern half of Florida know how the New Orleans evacuees in Houston must feel right now. Sometimes it seems that "IT" is just out to get ya!

$:-\$

This thing still has time to make an early turn and head for the same place as Katrina. That might be the "best" scenario, since there ain't all that much left there, anyway. "Best" is probably an unfortunate choice of words. "Least bad" would probably be better.

The really bad part of it is, that it can hit Galveston head on and still flood NO just from the effects of the outer bands.

The radar pics are just amazing to me. The eye has been steadily moving away from Florida, yet with the hurricane increasing in size, the outer bands are still covering Florida.

YUP, we are still getting wind gusts and rain squalls way up here in Central Florida. Can't imagine what the Gulf Coast will look like on Sunday. This thing is now over 500 miles wide.

Ya figure them folks from N.O., now in Huston, that wouldn't come to MI, might now

Naw, the news showed all of'em from the Astro Dome getting off the air planes at Fort Smith Ar. I believe they said there was about 4000 of'em that was still at the Dome that they had to move to Ar.
