the katrina damage was mostly New Orleans levee failures.
If anyone hasn't watched this, please do, it shows you the flooding in NO and how it went down with Katrina. I live 10 miles from there and it didn't have any flooding here like in NO.

then Rita came up the wetlands and caused a lot of damage, but Katrina really did its own thing in the bowl that is nola, because they drained swamps for their housing over there when some guy invented a pump, and they thought it was a great idea.
I've learned way more than I ever wanted to know moving to hurricane land 2 years ago from So Cal. way more.
PS. Katrina was huge, 900 miles across when it hit land! people fail to mention that... Katrina was HUGE... I learned this from a guy who lost his home in Mississippi.
