This has topped Andrew. How on earth could that little storm have done more damage then this monster. There is no way Andrews will remine the top storm. I'm really thinking at this time that Katrina is around 50 billion.

I dont think the poster meant that there wasn't a flood in the title but the 'NO" was for New Orleans. I had to read it twice.


Speaking of CNN, have you all seen this?

Andrew you called a little storm? LOL perhaps in size but not for the damage it did. "Trust me". As for overall damage, Move over Andrew, make a place for Katrina.

Today predicted?

Finally found time tonight to look at the Times-Picayune series on NO storm vulnerability. I'm thinking somebody nailed it pretty good...the model path on the Cat 3 here is only a few miles west of today's actual path.

Yeah I saw that rescue. Stunning. Only the very top of this man's roof was uncovered. His home was surrounded by mud and water. The Coast Guard rocks.
