New hurricane worries La. after Katrina
“NEW ORLEANS - What was to have been a weekend of remembrance of Hurricane Katrina’s destruction became a weekend of worry as Ernesto strengthened to a hurricane in the Caribbean.
The National Hurricane Center said Ernesto could grow into a Category 3 hurricane by Thursday, menacing a broad swath of the Gulf Coast. Katrina was a Category 3 storm when it ravaged New Orleans a year ago Tuesday.”
I was wondering when we would get hit with a hurricane. It’s been way to quiet but it seems that it is not going to stay that way. I will be watching closely to see where Ernesto decides to go!
As for poor New Orleans… ”
It was too early to tell whether Ernesto would provide an early test for the city’s levee system, which Lt. Gen. Carl Strock conceded may not yet be strong enough to withstand a large storm surge.”
Stay tuned…
