Katrina Wasn't Cat 4

[OleMissGlitter]

We heard tonight on TV that based on the old hurricane scales it would be a cat. 3, however Bay St. Louis and some other areas had a storm surge of almost 48 feet...that is more than a cat. 3 scale...perhaps they need to redo the scale...but regardless, my parents house is gone...Katrina was a big ole girl!
