Still early, may just just turn into a tropical storm.

Stay safe guys. And if they say get out do your best to get out.

Forecasters said Rita could intensify in the Gulf of Mexico into a Category 4 storm with winds of at least 131 mph. The most likely destination by week's end was Texas, although Louisiana and northern Mexico were possibilities, according to the hurricane center.

I hope all those affected by this hurricane stay safe, and i don't mean people at P2L i mean everyone.

It's truly a disaster within a disaster! When will people actually get to have a break from all these disasters?

Keep safe!

Stop staying on P2L and instead go to to book some hotels and a flight at Expedia.com.
