Looks like my fears proved true unfortunately.
It might not have been a cat 5 when it hit, but as we've all seen over the last few days, the effects of Katrina were far worse than Andrew. It has turned out to be, as I said, one of those disasters that will be talked about for years afterwards.
I never really believed anything could be worse than that monster in 1992, but Katrina sadly was.
Its strange to think we were hit dead on by the same storm,but of course it really wasn't the same one. Compared to what she turned into, Katrina was still a baby when she blew through South East Florida.
What a sad time this is. I hope those poor suffering people get some relief soon. I wish I could get it to them, but all I, like most of us can do is donate to the relief efforts and send up lots of prayers.
