Hurricane Katrina was the largest and third strongest hurricane ever recorded to make landfall in the U.S. In New Orleans, the levees were designed for Category 3, but Katrina peaked at a Category 5 hurricane, with winds up to 175 miles per hour. The storm surge from Katrina was 20-feet (six meters) high. 705 people are reported as still missing as a result of hurricane Katrina. Hurricane Katrina affected over 15 million people in different factors such as economy, evacuations, gas prices or drinking water.

Hurricane names usually com up for use every three years. For example, there was a Hurricane Michael in 2012.

However, if a hurricane is bad enough its name is retired, meaning it is pulled out of the 6 year cycle and replaced. For example there will never be another storm named Andrew, Katrina, or Sandy.

Not the famous Hurricane Katrina of 2005, which devastated New Orleans, no. That storm developed near the Bahamas, crossed Florida, and finally stuck the U.S. Gulf coast.

Other than some crops destroyed by flooding damage was minimal.
