The Chandeleur Islands it seems were wiped off the map.

Many of those pictures are Camille revisited for me, except on a larger scale and more destructive scale. Some of the reports I have heard from members reporting back in from areas 60+ miles inland are also the same things I saw after Camille when you couldn't even drive along the coast. It will be most interesting when reanalysis and investigations of what records of the winds, etc. that may be left/available are done and final classification of Katrina is done.
