Katrina was CAT 3 when it hit NO!

I will tell you, I'm waiting for my first Plaquemine's satsuma from Becnel's, too. But don't come on here and put information up that isn't even accurate. Someone from here can see through it, but people from out of town can't always.

We want them to understand what happened, not to be more confused that the government already allowed them to be.

MMM satsumas from the thousands of Becnel's mmmm

THAT DID get destroyed by the storm

It was a Cat 3 when it hit. But remember the track shows eye location, Cat 4 winds could've easily still hit NO before it weakened to a Cat 3. The storm surge was huge with Katrina. A good majority of Biloxi was damaged by storm surge. But does anyone care about Biloxi, of course not it's always about NO. Plus you need to remember about the past storms that went through the surrounding area. Like Frances and Ivan in 2004, then Dennis hit before Katrina. With all those storms hitting, those leaves where already taking a beating.
