Hurricane Katrina

For this current blog assignment we were told to research any hurricane that has occurred in our nation's history and report on it. I chose to do my research on Hurricane Katrina which mainly affected New Orleans on Aug 29, 2005. It was the second strongest hurricane ever recorded in the United States, with a storm surge of over 20ft high. The hurricane caused more than $75 billion in physical damages and the death toll remains at 1,836 primarily from Louisiana and Mississippi.
