T.S. Rita

I hope it steers clear of the panhandle !! They must be getting close to being out of names ?

Only 8 more to go for the English alphabet, then they go right into the Greek alphabet. Unfortunately, the storms don't stop just because we ran out of letters in the USA.

Actually, there are only four left! Stan, Tammy, Vince, Wilma. None of them sounds that scary, but then again neither does/did "Katrina."

I didn't even look. We may get there really fast then. I thought for sure they could think of some evil sounding name with the funky letters... like Xenon or Xander or Yuckie. Thanks for the correction!

Y...Yanni...could be a very annoying storm!

Soporific, if nothing else.

To our friend Rita...please forgive us in advance when we curse your name! Could Galveston/Houston be next? Wish me luck in getting my 80 yo daddy out of Houston, if so.

Call me crazy, but at the beginning of the season, I said I didn't like the idea of Hurricane Rita. I know a crazy Rita who is like a Cat 5. I don't like this storm.

Had a girl friend in grade named Zonia, nice friend, sure she would not want a hurricane named after her.
