Description
Another beautiful evening in Louisiana by Lake Pontchartrain and the many silhouettes that come into view with the sense of jazzy hot and humid tones !
When Hurricane Katrina reached Category 5 in 2005, some experts predicted that the levee system might fail completely if the storm passed close to the city. Although Katrina weakened to a Category 3 before making landfall on August 29 (with only Category 1-2 strength winds in New Orleans on the weaker side of the eye of the hurricane), the outlying New Orleans East along south Lake Pontchartrain was in the eyewall with winds, preceding the eye, nearly as strong as Bay St. Louis, MS. Canals near Chalmette began leaking at 8 am,and some levees/canals, designed to withstand Category 3 storms, suffered multiple breaks the following day .
