Hurricane Update

The 8 AM update is just in, and still shows a northern Texas landfall, somewhere between Houston and Beaumont.... Rita II.

This all depends on what the front does. The models show the tail end of the front dissipating, causing the northward turn, but as you can see on the frontal map, that ain't happened yet. It's still wait and see, but if I lived anywhere from Matagorda Bay northward, I'd be gettin' outta Dodge. Keep your eyes peeled, and good luck.
