Re: Hurricane Katrina Makes Landfall in SE Louisiana as a Category 4 Storm

Phil - NBC reported a 3' x 5' section of roof had peeled off and the sky is visible.. they also said a small lightning rod on top the roof came thru and fell to the field. Someone above reported 1/12th but that has not been confirmed by an onsite reporter.. just a 3' x 5' piece. The integrity of the roof is questioned however as they still expect some heavy winds.




i SAW the video (still) shot with a video camera which brian williams emailed to the station...there is definitely a HOLE in the roof...can't tell (no perspective) how large it is, but daylight is CLEARLY visible
