Summary

DescriptionHurricaneRitaFlooding AMO 20050925.jpg	Two images showing the extent of flooding in Texas and Louisiana as a result of w:Hurricane Rita. Offshore, sediment swirls in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, coloring the water blue in contrast to its normal inky black. The sediment is probably a combination of sludge stirred up from the ocean floor when Rita’s winds and rains churned Gulf waters and run-off from the extensive flooding seen in this image.
