Rita's turn

Hurricane Rita is now a category 4 hurricane and it's in the Gulf of Mexico already. It looks like it might hit Houston, Texas, thereby forcing the re-evacuation of the people moved there from New Orleans in Katrina's aftermath. Is Rita gonna destroy a city as well? If that happens, the US economy might be dealt a blow that could have repercussions worldwide. I'd like to hope it won't happen, but the hurricane is there, over a quarter of the gulf already, and those are the hottest waters around, a boon for a hurricane. Let's just hope the federal government this time won't wait a week before starting to look into it. At least this time Bush isn't on vacation.
