@kissmydubs exactly! Failed Levy is what flodded Louisiana..Rita was much worse!

alot of people argue back and forth about who has been through a stronger storm.. and you know? sand, sea foam,trash and plant matter.. soaked wet.. cold.. hittin ya in the face, is a litttttle hard to differentiate between say after 100 miles an hour. trade blows with a wet towel, swing as hard as you can and yo uget a picture. i was in operations and emergency management when i windows were breathing. listening to incoming 9-1-1 calls in beaumont when they burst on us.

Response to Rita moved inland as a tropical depression. I was in Lake Charles, La. which is 50 miles inland when the hurrricane hit. I was working for FEMA OEP and at 2:30am a large work boat at the Port of Lake Charles recorded sustained winds for 10 minutes straight at 120 mph, yes ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY. ten seconds is a gust, 10 minutes is sustained. Tidal surge after the storm reached 9 feet MSL.

these are the kind of people who die in the hurricane and their relatives call it tragic. Stupid is more like it.

i'm from lake charles and when rita hit i had to go to frierson, bossier city, and shreeveport. i had to stay for like a month and a half, i was so pissed off because i couldn't go home. we didn't eat any real food, just sandwiches and microwave meals. in frierson 13 people had to stay in a two bedroom hot ass trailer. hurricane knocked the water system out so we had to bathe with rainwater.

Yea Rita WAS WAY WORSE Katrina had a huge impact because of the surge and a fail levy(sp?) system
