Here's a shot of Katrina's Buras landfall:

What time was Rita at max intensity (895mb)? I may have saved a shot. As for Rita's landfall, I believe that there was a satellite outage just as Rita approached the coast (perhaps an eclipse period). I have a shot of Rita just before landfall:

TWC Advisory Graphics

#3 Postby AJC3 » Tue Apr 04, 2006 7:50 pm

Did you actually mean TWC or TPC (NHC)?

If it's the graphics from The Weather Channel that you're after, then you may want to cut to the quick - e-mail TWC and ask them if they're still available.

Looks like Rita peaked around 03Z-09Z on the 22nd. Here's an enhanced IR shot of Rita near peak intensity that night:

CHRISTY - you're KILLING us with those HUGE graphics. :roll:

Didn't the board ask for that practice to be discontinued???

It would be quite pleasant if you'd just post the link, and not the graphic...
