I can’t believe that it has been 20 years since hurricane Katrina struck.
Some may want to watch this documentary. I am going to record it, but I don’t think I can watch it. The older I get the less of this I want to see and be reminded of how much people lost and were hurt.
It's hard to believe that it has been that long already. I hope this year will be mild ones. I don't think I'll watch it either since there is enough going on the news now .
I was wondering on where Katrina landed on the list of the worst & learned hurricanes are ranked by intensity, damage & fatalities. The damage (costliest) hurricanes have all been since 1992 with Katrina as #1. The dates are all over on the two charts with the earliest ones from 1900.
