20 years in the past as we speak, the town of New Orleans and the Gulf Coast modified without end as Hurricane Katrina made landfall as a monster class three storm. Nearly 1400 individuals had been finally killed. More than 1 million had been displaced from their houses, and New Orleans was largely underwater after the levees failed, inflicting catastrophic flooding all throughout the town.
