No. Hurricane Katrina was a hurricane, not an earthquake. They are two completely different things. It was, however, one of the most devastating storms on record.

There is no such things as "a Katrina hurricane." Hurricane Katrina was a particular hurricane that hit the Gulf Coast in 2005. Hurricane Katrina was worse than any tornado on record and deadlier and more destructive than any recorded snowstorm. Katrina was worse than most earthquakes, but not all. Hurricane Katrina killed about 1,800 people. Some earthquakes have had death tolls in the hundreds of thousands.
The costliest hurricane on record was Katrina.
The costliest hurricane on record was Hurricane Katrina which causes $81 billion in damage.
No. Hurricane Katrina is still by far the most destructive hurricane in U.S. history and one of the deadliest. Hurricane Sandy is the second most destructive on record.
It didn't. Hurricane Andrew was the most damaging hurricane on record until Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
The most dangerous hurricane on record was Hurricane Katrina in 2005. It caused catastrophic damage and loss of life along the Gulf Coast of the United States, particularly in New Orleans. Katrina was a Category 5 hurricane when it made landfall.

Hurricane Rita was the next actual one that made landfall and was substantial.
Hurricane Katrina was far worse than Ike. Compare the statistics: Hurricane Katrina killed 1,836 people and caused $105 billion in damage. Hurricane Ike killed 103 and caused $37 billion in damage.
Looking at historical records, not. Hurricane Katrina was the costliest hurricane in U.S. history in terms of property damage, with damage totaling $105 billion, but it was by no means the deadliest. The death toll of Hurricane Katrina was 1,836. Compare that with the deadliest U.S. hurricane, the Great Galveston hurricane of 1900, which killed at least 6,000. The deadliest Atlantic hurricane on record killed more than 20,000 people in 1780. The deadliest tropical cyclone (the generic term for storms such as hurricanes) on record was the Bhola Cyclone of 1970, which killed over 300,000 people in what is now Bangladesh.
Katrina was not the strongest hurricane ever recorded, but it was one of the most destructive. Hurricane Patricia, which hit Mexico in 2015, holds the record for the strongest hurricane by wind speed, with maximum sustained winds reaching 215 mph.
Both Katrina and Andre were extremely destructive category 5 hurricanes. Andrew actually held the record for the most destructive U.S. hurricane at $26 billion until Katrina came along and caused damage totaling to $105 billion.
