They've just upgraded Katrina to a Category 5 this morning. Only three category 5s have hit the US. If it continues to New Orleans, it's going to be a very sad situation since the city is below sea level.
My thoughts and prayers to all of the residents of the Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama coastlines. They are even predicting that this storm will remain at hurricane force for between 12-24 hours after landfall because of it's strength.
