Some Post-Rita Links

I just found the blog of the Houston Chronicle. I guess it's a good idea to link it. It contains some interesting facts about the storm and the evacuation:

"Texas safely evacuated approximately 2.7 million people - equivalent of the population of Kansas - in harm's way in 36 hours," the governor's office said.


Rice's emergency website is also interesting to read. It states, for example:

The campus experienced no flooding - indeed, virtually no standing water -- and only 1.01" of rain as of noon, Saturday, September 24. The highest wind gust recorded on campus was 65 mph.


Ok, I think it's time for me to get ready for bed. This was another long day.
