Hurricane Rita

From what I hear and read, it is chaos in Houston as people evacute. Essentially every gas station has run dry and almost everyone has loaded up in their SUV and headed out of town. With a metopolis of 5 million, all of the highways have become a parking lot. Horror stories of 13 hour drive resulting in 50 miles of progress.

I've gathered a few links of bloggers staying in Houston to cover the storm along with other usefull nuggets of info:
