tvc184 Posted August 28, 2006 Report Posted August 28, 2006 I loved it when some of the earlier models showed it coming in to the TX/LA border area since there is almost never a correct prediction that far out. I remember when Rita was looking like it might turn into Mexico. Then Brownsvile, Corpus Christi, Galveston and then the Golden Triangle. Even then, it actually turned into Louisiana first even though the eye crossed the Golden Triangle. This storm, like Rita last year (and others), show that predicting hurricanes is far from an exact science. Even the best science available really has no clue as to where a hurricane may be 48 hours from now. All you can do is be prepared and wait for the last 48-72 hours (maybe) and hopefully get an idea where it may make landfall.
