People need to remember that Katrina was a category 3 when she hit, it was NOT the STORM that did all that damage - it was the levee failure.

Katrina damage was MAN MADE. The storm itself was not that bad.

I sat on Grand Isle as a kid through storms worst than Katrina. Was stuck there for 2 weeks with no contact to my mom, and I was 10 or so way back in the 80s.
