The following is a compiled list of current BBS posts relating to Hurricane Rita as of 3:00pm, September 23rd. While there have been many great posts on the topic, I have tried to include only those which are routinely updated or that will aide people in planning for the storm and its aftermath. Please let me know if I have missed some that fit into that category. At the bottom is a list of data I have found which could be helpful, but to my knowledge it has not yet been posted. -Montana ~~~~~~~ UPDATE: I have combined most of these into a KMZ, which is now attached. (Thanks to Frank4 for the idea.) ---------------------------------CURRENT BBS POSTS--------------------------------- Projected path (Updated regularly): Nat'l Weather Service --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/116535/page/0 -------- by Mike_in_Florida Compared paths --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/125782/page/0/vc/1 -------- by dr0b3rts Worldwide tropical storms, hurricanes, typhoons --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/110283/page/0 -------- by glooton Strike probability (Updated regularly): --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/122144/page/0 -------- by Mike_in_Florida Evacuation Maps for Galveston, TX: --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/121910/an/0/page/0 -------- by blumenth Weather Models and Analysis (Updated regularly): --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/51227/page/ -------- by pseabury --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/121270/an/0/page/36#121270 -------- by kilaana Local Weather statements - various (Updated regularly): --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/122259/an/0/page/0 -------- by Mike_in_Florida Risk Zones: Texas Coast --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/123909/an/0/page/0 -------- by encleadus Louisiana Coast --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/124372/an/0/page/0#124372 -------- by montana_morrison Storm Surge maps: Jefferson County, TX (from State Farm Insurance) --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/122574/an/0/page/0 -------- by JasonBo Coastal Louisiana --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/124456/an/0/page/1#124456 -------- by montana_morrison Webcams: Around Houston, TX --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/124300/an/0/page/0#124300 -------- by gmprod Around Galveston, TX --http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/123490/an/0/page/0#123490 -------- by wsnyder98 ---------------------------------OTHER USEFUL DATA--------------------------------- Various Hazard Maps Texas---http://www.thmp.info/data_layers/index.html -------- by Texas Geographic society Evacuation: Selected Texas counties ---http://www.srh.noaa.gov/hgx/tropical/evac_map/gifs/ -------- by NOAA Lake Charles, LA ---http://www.srh.weather.gov/lch/tropical/evac-maps.htm -------- by NOAA Louisiana guide ---http://www.lsp.org/evacguide.html -------- by Louisiana State Police Louisiana map ---http://www.lsp.org/pdf/Web_StateMap2.pdf -------- by Louisiana State Police Risk Maps of Texas Selected areas ---http://www.srh.noaa.gov/hgx/tropical/evac_map/gifs/ -------- by NOAA Galveston Region ---http://www.srh.noaa.gov/hgx/tropical/evac_map/GSAevaczones.pdf -------- by NOAA noaa.gov National Hurricane Center ---http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ -------- by NOAA Storm Tracker: Rita ---http://www.stormtracker.noaa.gov/stormtracker-rita.htm -------- by NOAA Floodplain maps: Parts of Texas ---http://www.dodson-hydro.com/efloodmap/communities.htm -------- by Dodson and Associates, Inc.
