On Monday, August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina struck Louisiana, staggering New Orleans with a 22-foot storm surge. The levees broke and the city began to flood. When Katrina finally blew itself out in the Midwest, 1,836 people in eight states were dead and 705 were missing, making Katrina the fifth deadliest hurricane in U.S. history. Katrina’s damages (estimated at $110 billion) and evacuations (between 1 and 2 million) were the largest in U.S. history (www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/reports/tech-report-200501z.pdf; see also, www.cnn.com/2005/WEATHER/08/31/.katrina.impact/index.html).
