  Hurricane Rita Intensifies
The record hurricane season continues, now sporting the 3rd most intense Atlantic basin cyclone ever (898 mb as of this writing), as well as only the 3rd time on record two category 5 hurricanes have occured in the same year. While the storm is expected to weaken before striking the Texas coast - this season is certainly drawing attention toward extreme weather.
