Pretty good. I rode it out in Covington and I've been in New Orleans in the Miss. Gulf Coast for the past 2 weeks restoring communications. I've worked many hurricane restorations before and I've NEVER seen anything close to this when it comes to destruction. I worked Andrew and Ivan, and Katrina's devistation is worse than both those storms put together. It's amazing.
