This NOAA satellite image taken Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2005 at 14:15 EDT shows clouds associated with Category 4 Hurricane Rita spinning in the Gulf of Mexico. The storm is expected to move through the Gulf before making landfall over the central Texan coast early Saturday. Clouds associated with Tropical Storm Philippe can be seen east-northeast of Puerto Rico. This storm is expected to remain fall out at sea. Over land, a area of clouds over Florida associated with Rita's outflow is producing thunderstorms over the state. Much of the rest of the East remains dry under mostly sunny to partly cloudy.
