[0:00] this incredible process. Uh, hurricane

[0:03] read up.

[0:04] >> You can see that and as you can see that

[0:06] rain and wind continuing to just pound

[0:08] us here in the New Orleans area. This is

[0:10] really some of the worst weather that

[0:11] we've seen throughout the day today. And

[0:13] the fear is that this area might get the

[0:15] worst edge of Hurricane Rita and again

[0:18] overflow those leveies. One thing we do

[0:20] want to tell you, we did go out to the

[0:58] CBS4's Mike Kersh, Carrie Cod, and Brian

[1:00] Andrews will continue to chase Rita.

[1:02] Look for their live reports before,

[1:04] during, and after Rita's landfall.

[1:06] >> Other news now, relief for a South

[1:08] Florida family after two siblings, a

[1:10] six-year-old boy and his 5-year-old

[1:12] sister are found safe and sound. The two
