Re: Katrina Aftermath Continues

While waiting for the storm to make landfall, we all heard a lot about the worst case scenario. The destruction in New Orleans, etc. sounded like it would be something out of a sci-fi movie. First reports were more positive, but with conditions continuing to decline, our we looking at the worst case scenario?
Also, thoughts and prayers to all of our members here who are in harms way.
Yes.
The worst case scenario only required a Cat 2 in the right location, not a strong storm.
Katrina was in the right location and the west side of the storm was very week (this attenuatin could be seen prior to landfall as dry air made its way into the hurricane), so it could be compared to NO getting a Cat 2.
