Can someone please direct me to a graphical track of hurricane Katrina, including times and wind speeds? My brother is a lawyer handling a case vs an insurance company. He needs a graphical representation of the official track, including wind speeds and dates. For some reason, I'm having a hard time finding exactly what I need. Thanks.

Did you check the NHC archives?

Thanks for all your help. I found a good detailed list of coordinates and times. He'll just have to have the artist plot it out and draw it. He's trying to establish exact times for when the windfield left New Orleans, and where the center was roughly hour by hour, or advisory by advisory in graphical form. If anyone finds an actual plot location track, including labeling for windspeeds and times, that would be perfect. Thanks again!

if you look on the graphic from the NHC, it shows the wind field by advisory in colors (yellow for TS, red for hurricane) however does not show the exact winds...its here:
