Hurricane katrina was the eleventh named storm and fifth hurricane of the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season. It was the cost list natural disaster, as well as one of the five deadliest hurricanes,in the history of the United States. The storm is currently ranked as the third most intense United States landfalling tropical cyclone behind only the 1935 labour day hurricane, hurricane camille in 1969.Overall at least 1833 people died in the hurricane and subsequent floods,making it the deadliest United States hurricane since the 1982 okeechobee hurricane total property damage was estimated at $108 billion (2005 USD),roughly four times the damage wrought by hurricane Andrew in 1992. Later hurricane like in 2008 and hurricane sandy in 2012 caused more damage than hurricane Andrew. But both were far less destructive than katrina

Interview with hurricane expert Dr William Gray

This is a man many world look to and apparently respected as a leading forecaster of hurricanes yet,in this interview he clearly says that he (and other experts) do not believe that global warming is man induce. He acknowledged that the climate is warming but says this does not have a sufficient effect on hurricanes (see the next post for the latest hurricane prediction by Dr Gray) is there anyone out there listening to our science experts? Hello, U.S Supreme Court can you read or listen, or are you also controlled by politics? If anyone is suppose to be rational and if anyone is suppose to be rational and independent, it's is you folks. (Peter) hurricane and global warming: interview with meteorologist Dr.Willian Gray by James k.glassman (September 12 2005) meteorologist Dr.willian Gray may be the most famous hurricanes expert. More than two decades ago, as professor of atmosphere science and head of the tropical meteorologist project at Colorado state. University, he pioneered the science of hurricanes forecasting each December six month before the start of hurricane season. The no 75 years old Gray and his team issue a long rage prediction of the number of major tropical storm that will arise in the Atlantic basin. Pas
