Hurricane Katrina starts to slow down to a category 4 hurricane, it makes landfall at 6:00 AM, and the eye moves just east of New Orleans, but the city is not spared. New Orleans sits below sea level surrounded by lake Pontchartrain and the Mississippi river. High mud walls called levies keep the water in the bay, but by 8:00 AM there are reports that a levy was broken, and levies in three locations are breached. Now 80% of the city was flooded, and some neighborhoods are now submerged under 20 feet of water.

The damage is a mess, in Mississippi the hurricane has crushed coastal towns, hundreds are feared dead. New Orleans lies in shambles, it is left without power and without drinking water. Many residents are rested on top of rooftops, desperate to be rescued, bodies float on the streets, looting breaks out. Thousands make their way to the super dome and convention center in hopes of being evacuated.

The water stopped rising but the city is in chaos, looting and violence is so wide spread that police are ordered to stop rescue operations to combat the problem.

Conditions at the super dome and convention center are increasingly unsafe, people lack food, water, and basic sanitation. There are reports of violent assaults, altogether over 50,000 people wait full of buses to evacuate them, for most the buses do not come.

The national guard arrives in force and restores order, they bring convoys of food and water, and evacuations begin in earnest. By the following Monday, engineers plug holes in the levies, draining pumps go into operation, and the water subsides. The residents of the Gulf suddenly return, and their lives forever changed by the power of the hurricane.
