Hurricane Katrina was a category 3 hurricane that hit New Orleans August 29th, 2005. The people of New Orleans were told to evacuate August 28th. Most of the city evacuate when the storm hit, and the most of the people who stayed either stayed in their house, or found refuge in the superdome. Nearly 2,000 people died, because of Katrina.
Katrina was a terrible natural disaster that brought the community of New Orleans even closer than it was. It reminds me of a situation we just had in Baton Rouge a couple of weeks ago, The Great Flood of 2016. Both situations showed the true colors of both cities in the boot. You could see people of all different shapes, sizes, colors, genders, and religions helping each other. My dad's company Cajun Constructors had a bunch to do with getting all the water out of the city. he also built the flood wall that surrounds New Orleans today.
