Katrina remnants were still strong enough to give us blinding rain and winds gusts to 50 mph up here, for about 30 minutes in a squall line, even after spending a week over land. What a frightening and amazing storm. :eek: :eek: :eek:

Yep, it sucked. I'm sure we'll all be reminded of her more times than we'd like over the next few weeks.

Stay away from TWC, CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, and your local news stations, They'll turn it into a 24/7 thing.

There has been a descision made to lock this Anniversary thread as it does offend a number of people and reopends wounds that are better left to continue healing. Franky all of the threads related to Katrina are very disturbing to many of our members. This year I think it would be best to leave it at rest. Were really not learning anything we haven't already heard.

So out of respect for those people who have suffered so much we are locking this thread.

Thank You for your understanding. :)
