Eye of Hurricane Katrina

As Hurricane Katrina moves further onshore in the Gulf of Mexico, the squall has been downgraded it to a Category 2 storm, sparing New Orleans the total devastation that was predicted for the city but still causing a number of major disruptions and concerns.

Katrina, which hit land this morning with winds in excess of 145 miles an hour, has caused a number of levees to break in New Orleans, leading authorities to fret over the potential for widespread flooding, though, at the same time, popular areas of the city such as the French Quarter are free from rising water for the time being.

4. This was in regards to Scotty's press conference 9/9/05
I should have put in my original post that Scotty was asked why did * make the comment that "who would have guessed that the levee's would break" Scotty said that On Tuesday the president had read the headlines stating that "NO dodges bullet" so that he thought that they were fine.

5. Wow, now I feel really secure
We have a CIC who reads ONE account of a deadly storm and decides all is well, so he can 'go on with his life'!!! Along with his entire administration.
