As of now, Rita is on target for a Galveston/Houston direct hit for Saturday as a category 3 hurricane. Of course, this could change, but a category 3 would still be pretty nasty (I remember Alicia very well). It's possible it could head directly into Louisiana again, so efforts in New Orleans will have to go into double-time. I have a really reliable weather source, so I'll add updates as I find out.
Chita would never behave this way.
