I was recently back in New Orleans for a bit, and I took some pictures of the damage caused by hurricane Katrina. I hope this qualifies as "What You Saw Today"
First are some before and after pictures:
Under construction before Katrina hit:
Here are some cars I spotted:
Pick-up crushed by a tree:
BMW
C6 Corvette!
The storm deposited many boats up on land:
These two boats are balanced against each other...
That brown line in the first pic is where the water came up to, and stayed for several weeks:
An S600 I spotted:

at least there is still things standing in NO. Holly Beach is GONE! My coworker's family had a camp there. 100% wiped out. Rita picked up slabs of concrete and redeposited them about 100 feet away :shock:
Wow that brown line is absolutely astonishing - just crazy. The whole place just looks like a shantytown now, quite sad. But hey, did that Corvette get owned or what?
Still pretty much deserted then! sad to see such a mess but good pics! Hope its all back to normal as soon as possible, haven't heard much about it or plans for the future lately here
