Heh. So much for Houston getting drenched by Tropical Storm-Hurricane-Tropical Storm Humberto. Here at the Worldwide Headquarters, just north of the Crescent Ciy — we’ve been getting heavy weather in the usual Tropical Storm band formation since last night.

And it looks like the fun is just beginning.

According to the National Hurricane Center a few minutes ago, Humberto intensified at the fastest rate in history yesterday, before making landfall this morning as a Category 1 hurricane.

You think the NHC is trying to cover its rear with that statement?

There were no tropical storm warnings, no nothing for those folks in Southwest Louisiana and southeastern Texas who were awakened this morning by 85 mile an hour winds.
