I just watched the day after tomorrow, the movie where an ice age occurs, and it made me think, the hurricanes are getting worse and worse, its just like the movie, its creepy. I found an article about hurricane Katrina in new orleans...its massive...
"Hurricane Katrina barreled toward New Orleans on Sunday with 160-mph wind and a threat of a 28-foot storm surge"
"Katrina intensified into a Category 5 giant over the warm water of the Gulf of Mexico, reaching top winds of 175 mph"
"potential for a surge of 18 to 28 feet, 30-foot waves and as much as 15 inches of rain"
"Katrina may yet be more powerful than the last Category 5 storm, 1992's Hurricane Andrew, which at 165 mph leveled parts of South Florida, killed 43 people and caused $31 billion in damage"
"Scientists predicted Katrina could easily overtake that levee system, swamping the city under a 30-feet cesspool of toxic chemicals, human waste and even coffins that could leave more than 1 million people homeless"
"The 70,000-seat Superdome, the home of football's Saints, opened at daybreak Sunday, giving first priority to frail, elderly people on walkers, some with oxygen tanks. They were told to bring enough food, water and medicine to last up to five days"
"New Orleans may never be the same."
