Ivanhater,
Is there anyway at all this storm could shift further East than La? Are we pretty much in the clear now? I know anything can happen --- but I mean are we like 99% in the clear.

GFS has been atrocious this year and last with the strength of the ridge. I'd give it the weight it deserves, ZERO

it's about the forward speed... if she slows down (not likely) to under
8mph... then all bets are off...
the faster her forward progress is the more west she will go.

About to make a close post like that. Katrina moved very slowly until a trough picked her up. Now with Rita moving very fast the ridge forces her farther west until the ridge breaks down then moving W.

She is halling butt rate now! Reminds me of Andrew (not intensity) but how fast he accelerated under the ridge!

Yes and Andrew made a north turn before it was suppose to, no hurricane in history that has passed through the keys this late in the season and hit Texas.

Didn't Andrew have a little help pulling him up north? I don't see that help with Rita. Anyone have links to old models for Andrew?

True, but, this season has so far ignored the historical data.
