The bulk of the rain is forecast to fall from Georgia to the Carolinas. Stiff onshore winds will continue rough surf and will lead to coastal flooding and beach erosion over time. Much of the area from coastal Texas and Louisiana to the Lower Peninsula of Michigan and Maine has a sunny day in store, following patchy morning fog. Showers and thun- derstorms are forecast from parts of Oklahoma to Minnesota and northwestern Wisconsin.

Vacant slabs, weed-choked lots and solitary stairs to no- where permeate this tiny town in southwest Loui- siana. All that remains of the Klean-N-Kruise car wash is a rusted white sign overlooking an empty, over- grown lot. Residents travel 30 miles away for anything they can't get at the local gas station because there is no grocery store. And everywhere there are the campers. Hurricane Rita was one of the fiercest storms on re- cord when it roared ashore near the Texas/Louisiana border on Sept. 24, 2005. Coastal towns splintered as seawater pushed 20 miles inland and tornadoes wrecked homes. At least 11 deaths in Texas and Loui- siana were blamed on the storm, which caused more than $11 billion in damage and sparked one of the larg- est evacuations on record. In any other year it would have been the worst hurri- cane of the year. But this was the year of Hurricane Katrina. And the communi- ties along Louisiana's west- ern coast felt abandoned. They still do. As Katrina's 10-year an- niversary was marked by a week of events including visits from three American presidents, in communities along the western coast where people still live in small trailers in their yards because they can't afford to rebuild, Hurricane Rita's wrath is ever-present. "People would like to move back. It's just so costly. You've got to build up," said Shon Manuel, who stays in a camper in Cameron to be close to his business, Dock- side Bar & Grill. "It's like they don't want you here." Rita struck as a category 3 hurricane with 120-mph winds and a storm surge reaching as high as 20 feet, swamping small towns across southwest Louisi- ana and ravaging south- east Texas. Intent to not see a repeat of Hurricane Katrina where tens of thousands did not or could not evacuate, officials ordered people out across the region in one of the largest evacuations in U.S. history. But even that was dangerous. More than 100 people died in the chaotic, pre-storm evacuation of the Houston area, including 23 nursing home patients who perished when their bus burst into flames. Millions fled and got stuck in traf- fic jams in sweltering heat. When the hurricane ar- rived, seawater pushed as far as 20 miles inland, drowning acres of rice, sugarcane fields and pas- ture for cattle. Thousands of cows drowned. Rita spread devastation across what portion of Louisi- ana's coastline Katrina had spared, with damage reach- ing 150 miles east of where the storm came ashore. Residents of southwest Louisiana lamented what they called "Rita amnesia," saying it took them lon- ger to get aid because they struggled to draw attention to their devastation. "This place, it was like a bomb was dropped on it. It was that bad," Manuel said. "It makes me mad. New Or- leans was talked about so much, and all these lit- tle towns, it was all wiped out."
