Five years ago last Saturday, Hurricane Katrina tore into Louisiana and Mississippi, causing such catastrophic destruction along the coast and in places like New Orleans that some cities and towns are still struggling to rebuild.
What some may forget is that four days earlier, Katrina made its first landfall in South Florida.
People here, though, haven’t forgotten. In fact, some in Florida who lived through Katrina now are preparing for disasters they fear could be more damaging than hurricanes.
