Yes it will...It is already starting to move into the northwestern quad. Watch this thing weaken 20 millibars durning the next 24 hours. In possibly make landfall as a 110 mph hurricane.

Dewpoint in Dallas is 70degrees


ALso, check out latest Pwater values. Shes moving in the moist air with her. I dont think dry air will be an issue till after landfall. :(

(click on precipatable water)

Not sure how the atmosphere around her (top to bottom) as a whole is looking, but theres definitely enough moisture moving in to keep her going it seems.

You should add a disclaimer if you are going to say something like that. Some people come here just to view the boards, and saying that might confuse them into thinking that Rita will not be a bad storm.

Breezy, and eerily quiet.
