Hurricane Katrina First Landfall - Ft. Lauderdale / Homestead, Florida

[archerpalms1]

i find it bizarre that people are still driving around like they are going shopping? Hello there is a Hurricane out there!

In Australia they close the Highways and order everybody off the roads before a cyclone begins.

im from st.louis and i honestly say that storm was so strong we felt it..after this was had a storm that was knocking down trees left and right..before the storm hit winds was blowing for days nonstop...we was hit by 2 storms the first storm knocked out our power for 2 days...the second storm knocked out our power for 2 weeks

stupid asshole. It would have been REALLY funny if a piece of flying debris would have slashed one of these idiots across the face. Respect mother nature, respect people that have actually prepared to face a hurricane and died while doing the right thing. But don't post your stupid video online so that some brain dead teenager with nothing to do goes outside during a hurricane of this magnitude and gets killed. assholes.

wonder what happens if a piece of metal like a flattened pop can, roof tile or a stick gets blown into people who stand in those winds.......

Video very complete, Mike! .. thanks for sharing. Only in this way, others can understand the strong impact of Katrina on their first arrival. The man at minute 2:11, is overcome by the fury of Katrina :o

Awesome video, Mike!!! Definitely some of the best Katrina shots from South Florida! Those palms getting sandblasted at 2:45 is classic!

2005 was one heck of a Hurricane Season! I was living in South Texas at the time. Hurricane Rita came close! Really fantastic footage Mike!! Katrina was already very powerful when it made its first landfall in Florida shown here in this video! Great job!!
