katrina damage- 161 billion
Most of it falls directly at the hands of the incompetent Army Corp and the NOLA area shady levee board public officials.

See my comment above. And Nagin and dollar Bill Jefferson stole a shite load of the Katrina money

TBF, that isn't a super helpful graphic. Shows onset of winds, % chance of hurricane/50 kt/TS winds, and has some color table for max expected. Way too fricking busy to be useful.

Red must be percentage of a direct hit.

TWC graphic of model wind forecast says the storm is barely a cat 1 at landfall
Seems reasonable, HWRF shows a pretty rapid decrease in organization on final approach.

Just because you can conceive of even worse circumstances doesn’t mean they got lucky.
Katrina was a bitch, but from purely a storm perspective, MS took Katrina's haymakers. Nola took its weaker left jab, but was unprepared for it
Doesnt mean it sucks less for the people that lost everything. Not their fault for incompetence of others

I'll pass along again that if anyone is looking for live cams and a chance to help out some folks doing good work, hurrcianetrack.com is worth the Patreon contribution. They will have multiple unmanned live cams out as well as a weather station or two. There's other stuff available on their insider site.

Mark Sudduth seems like good people. You know if he survived an aortic dissection and makes a living chasin hurricanes, he ain't no whimp.

Redneck was probably in 4th grade when Katrina hit. Don’t be too hard on him. He doesn’t remember
Not to derail this, but I thought Katrina's path brought surge to lake Ponchartrain and then south into the city due to shifting winds from being on the west side. Would it not have pushed surge north had Nola been on the east side? Obviously wind damages would have been worse. I genuinely don't know if I remember this correctly so just asking.

Just download the kplc 7 news app. It has a radar with the track overlaid on it. You can zoom in as much as you want to find exact locations.
Thanks. What I’m looking for is something like 280 Miles SSE of Sabine Pass,Tx heading NNW @ 12 mph.

water gonna take path of least resistance first. easier to pile up in lakes and canals instead of going up onto land

So looks like a 1 at landfall. Riding it out in Broussard so I know we might catch the worst quadrant if it turns faster than predicted

Bill Jefferson went to jail for bribe money he took way before Katrina. His conviction had nothing to do with Katrina.

You remember correctly, from a flow standpoint katrina was pretty close to worse case, as far as overall surge and winds Nola got lucky.
And honestly the flow and subsequent levee breaks was more man made than natural disaster. The hurricane just highlighted and incompetence .
