The
Sky Before Katrina Struck...
Whoever
took these pictures did an awesome
job.
And
whoever said Katrina was 'awesome
and terrifying'
is
telling
the truth. Wow, take a look at this
....
These
pictures were made by a man in Magee, MS
where
the
eye of the storm passed thru- what
an experience.
Magee
is 150 miles North of Waveland , Mississippi
where
the
Hurricane made
landfall. The dance with Katrina,
part
of
her beauty as she left destruction
on her exit.They are
of
Saint Stanislaus College located next door to Our
Lady
of
the Gulf church in Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi on
the
morning
of August
29th, 2005.This is believed to be
the
initial
tidal wave from Hurricane Katrina.The tidal wave
was
approximately
35 to 40 feet high.When it slammed into
the
beach
front communities of Bay Saint Louis and
Waveland,
Mississippi
to completely destroy 99% of every
structure
along
the beach for 9 miles and over a mile
inland.The
destruction
only started there.The flooding that
continued
inland
destroyed the contents of all but 35
homes in
these
two
communities of approximately 14,000
people.
