I am not sure why I haven’t blogged about Hurricane Katrina before now, probably because it is nowhere near me. Even so I still feel a little frightened for the people caught in the storm and the vicious weather it brings with it. Katrina has been awarded the class 5 hurricane status, and is heralded as one of the worst hitting the USA in record.

The New York Times has a slideshow of images, you can find that here.
Wikipedia, as is normal, has a wealth of information on the hurricane, which you can find here.

Deepest symathy to all those caught in the storm.
