Katrina movie


In Louisiana counties are called "parishes"
Katrina hit New Orleans 

Hurricane pan was a simulation to train people

hurricanes keep getting stronger as long as they are over water

katrina 6 days ago was still only a tropical depression

When hurricane ivan hit a 3rd of people evacuated

This is why katrina hit like it did

90% of deaths happen from drowning because of storm surges

New orleans was surrounded by 2 bodys of water

The mississippi broke out and killed about 500 people

Mankind destroyed the natural water protecters, wetlands

Katrinas storm surge hit like a bullet to new orleans central

Levees were bulit for category 3 hurricane

The citys pumps were overflown

The whole system worked in reverse when the levees broke

75% of new Orleans is underwater

They dropped sandbags to stop the water for coming in
