Friday, September 23, 2005 2 Million Flee from Hurricane Rita AP: The storm's march toward land sent 100s of 1000s of people fleeing the nation's 4th largest city in a frustratingly slow, bumper-to-bumper exodus from Houston, TX. Please read this woman's personal account of being caught in the Rita gridlock for 12hrs and being able to go only 55 miles in that time. Let's hope Rita is not as devastating as Katrina, and that N.O. doesn't flood again from the current falling rain. |
