Digital Story Narrative 2

In 2005 a big hurricane struck. Nobody thought it would be bad enough where people start to lose their life and even lose their house. Hurricane katrina first started off as a category one hurricane in the Bahamas moving through southern Florida. It began to strengthen as it breezed through the Gulf of Mexico to a category three hurricane and moving to New Orleans. Eighty percent of New Orleans was flooded for weeks, but the worst was the coastal areas that had 90% of damage. Over a thousand people lost their life and even more lost their homes. Everybody who didnt live in new orleans felt bad for them. New York sent a few trucks to help the new orleans fireman get the water out of the city. Many people didnt have anywhere to go and couldn't get any help to get out of new orleans. Some eventually died from starvation or trying to send out an SOS. Its hard to tell this story because i really wasnt their and i cant explain the story from a person who experienced this.
