The Perfect Storm Meets The Total Disaster Area what The Heck?

It's happening, because so many last minute waited to get
out now the news is reporting roads are becoming blocked and gas
stations are running out of gas. Per news for Gulf coast miles you can
see folks trying to leave and get out of Rita's potential path but the
bumper to bumper filled roads apparently can't take it. Some reportedly
are so afraid of running out of gas and being trapped they are just
staying at local service stations for security. The predicted inland
surge will be however enormous so it's a must that fleeing folks don't
hang around and just try and keep going as long as it's away from the
Coast. I don't like it, Rita is showing signs of speed west direction
slowing down as I cautioned and might stall for a little while to gain
even more strength over the Gulf, worst case scenario. She's already a
cat 5 if she plays, around even for a little while, outer winds and
gusts could possibly reach forget about it 200+ mph. It's the eye, it's
so perfectly formed very must like Katrina's but cloud cover so much
larger. I don't like it, center pressure is still so low nothing like it
since I can remember, and the way she fast jumped from a cat 1 to a 5,
extremely dangerous for sure. This baby could just explode even larger
before she possibly makes it between New Orleans and Galveston Gulf
coast, she's that huge.
