Hurricane Katrina
Hurricane Katrina was one of the most powerful storms in the United States. This storm developed in the Atlantic and was called Tropical Depression 12. When the storm passed the Bahamas, it developed to a Category 3 Hurricane. The storm eventually developed to a Category 5 storm as it approached land. According to the research that I have done, New Orleans was hit the hardest because they are 8 feet under sea level. After the storm hot, 80% of New Orleans was under 20 feet of water. It took about a week for National Guards to help out the people who were stranded in New Orleans. About 1,500 died in New Orleans and a total of 1,833 people died during this hurricane.
