Destruction at it's finest

Natural terrorist

[glaaachs]

Look, a giant asswhole!!

[neXmo2010]

that is scary

[mrjenko]

Yasi makes this look small !

[darknite954]

the eye creeps me out

[chodaboy57]

If you want to see something truly terrifying, check out "Hurricane Katrina Thermo Satellite view". The central red area just explodes after she enters the Gulf.

[stickmanpwner64]

It got a super mushroom when it hit the gulf.

[PokemonTCG101]

Response.....katrina was a beast we will never foget her or rita or wilma and andrew but katrina one bad storm

[PiscesGal]

That's really scary.

[whitmer73]

So called stupid Mayor of New Orleans probably would do things different.... Everybody get the fuck out of here.....

[brokentsi]

one of the scariest looking sat. feeds of a hurricane. The way it swells into a monster once it gets into the gulf. Ive been through a few hurricanes Bob in the 90s' i was in MD. Bonnie in VA. Its beyond words what these people had to go through.

[puddin922]

yes it was a bad storm but everyone forgets. Rita and Wilma were bad too, in Wilma's case worse and they happened in the same year. The people how stayed were warned to leave and they didn't.

[xXInFaMoUsGamingXx]

@puddin922 I dont think you can make that judgement unless you live on the gulf coast like i do. Im sorry but i think this was worse.

[gmoon6262]

Good god. What a monster. To help put into perspective how huge and powerful it was, I live 250 miles from the coast and our power was knocked out for two days.

[Plomomedia]

Where can I get a higher resolution version of this?

[jonasfan190]

i remember i lived in texas and all of us were afraid it was gonna hit us but then i prayed every single night and then the next morning my mom told me that katrina was not coming

[hindesketchup08]

Thanks dick.

[SammyFarkle]

Wait you guys rate him bad , he wasnt praying for the hurricane to hit you just him, it wasnt his fault he was doing probobly what everyone in New orleans was doing praying the hurricane woulnt hit!

[kkc0161]

i was in sixth grade when this happened....god i cant imagine what it would be like getting stuck in THAT

[ponchatoula420]

And that son of a bitch was a 5 I don't care whta anyone say's

[ponchatoula420]

I live in New Orleans my whole family went through betsy kamil how ever you spell it they all say Katrina was the worst that motherfucker was a beast I stood outside shouting at the storm for wrecking my city Fuck that shit Battle of New Orleans I looked like LT dane from forest Gump LOL I know I'm nut's I just love my city!

[jonasfan190]

yah pple have to defend there cities safety but screaming at the storm was not going to stop it

[ccdcat68]

if you pause at 0:11 you can see the eye over land

[maxieNG]

ahh i remember katrian!! she made trees fly around my neighborhood!

[IMFLORIDA305]

it was a cat 3 i doubt that

[jonasfan190]

that is funny but sad because katrina hit really bad did u have alot of damage

[Greyser84]

Holy cow!!! did u saw how the hurricane defined its eye as soon it started to go up???? that when it got more intense too

[CelloMaster14]

This is crap that Katrina was a Cat 3. I was a strong cat 4 at the LEAST, the anemometer i have recorded a sustained wind of over 175 mph(it stops recording after that speed). However, every new channel reported the storm as something different. I was nothing of the lake and stayed home to experience the storm in its full glory. I live in a brick house, and the wind tearing through everything was so loud I could do ANYTHING in my house and nobody could hear a thing.

[volcrazy89]

I so agree with you. Cat 3's don't produce 30 ft. surge. They just don't.

And OBTW to whoever made this video: this isn't an infared satellite loop.

[CelloMaster14]

thank you, at least someone is intelligent.

And yeah, dude that is a VISIBLE satellite loop...

[volcrazy89]

I mean, really. Do they expect people to believe that Katrina, which was supposedly around 130 mph, had a great surge, by SIX FEET, than Camille, which was around 200mph (gusts)? Keep in mind that both were around the same area when they came ashore.

So, I'm having a hard time believing the "Cat 3" stuff. It was clearly weakening as it was getting very close to shore, but it was obviously at least a Cat 4.

[alexgrad07]

It DID weaken to a Cat 3. That doesn't mean that all the water that built up from when it was a Cat 5 just suddenly disappeared....You also have to think about it's size too. It nearly covered the entire Gulf and it was bigger than Camille! The larger the storm the higher the surge. THAT'S why the surge was so high!

[PityOak]

Because it was a large storm.........

lol

[cyrusrom]

@alexgrad07 also I dont live in US but I know it`s a hypercane.

[XxdragicexX3]

@volcrazy89 your fucking stupid Katrina was a Cat 5 hurricane. She weakened before she hit land. Just cuz she weakened to a Cat 3, it doesnt mean the Cat 5 storm surge just disappears.

[Rezkoh]

@XxdragicexX3 "She"?

[spursnastros]

your gay

[xcostellorx]

I have no compassion for anyone that was too stupid to leave when they had the opportunity...especially the heroin addicts....

[CelloMaster14]

the highways and interstates were jammed to a halt for a week before the storm hit. You couldn't leave. However, yes, it was still pretty stupid.

[Questinia]

Many people didn't have cars. Too poor.

[rad4life1]

think of it this way, from 0:09 to 0:10 she stops in the middle of the Gulf and then moves in by 0:11, if you can catch that, its quick cause its sped up but that is about a whole day in one spot! Fucken intellegent hurricane!

[matt605]

Not at monster at 10 seconds? yeah, that's the whole thing. It packed a very large storm surge ahead of it. So the surge swept away the low-built houses and then also put so much water against the levees that they broke at the weakest points, on the canals.

[crashmann640]

it wasnt a monster at 10 seconds... it was a few seconds before it though (when winds reached 175 mph).

The 10 second mark is when the Eye-wall replacement cycle ended and Katrina was weakened to Category 3 strength.

[leojmiami]

if it was over water for just one hour longer east of miami it could have strengened to a cat 2 it had an eye butin the radar it moved right across my house awsome.

[Jangle2007]

Yes - Katrina was strengthening rapidly at landfall in Miami...I think that caught a lot of forecasters off guard.

[brian48]

wow amazing the eye just pops up makes you think how destructive hurricanes realy are

[yearofthe]

Stop at 0:11 and you ucan see it makng landfall in plag.parish in Louisiana. At 0:10 sec. what it grows to a monster. Pause at EXACLTY at 0:07 and you see an eye pop up.

[TheUndercatCompany]

Yor right yearofthe, it is making lanfall at 00:11

[piinkprincess131]

Thanks for pointing that out. I'm actually from Belle Chasse, which is in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. My family and I were blessed because we did not get too much damage except for some fallen trees in my backyard. Sadly, I know several people from lower Plaquemines who lost their homes and nearly everything they owned. My family and I went to look at the damage in lower Plaquemines after the storm and it was a huge shock and I did not want to believe that the storm actually happened.
