Just watch! This is my first individual hurricane track animation.
Hurricane Katrina was one of the deadliest and costliest hurricane of the 21st century, hitting the southern coast of Florida as a category 1 hurricane before smashing into the Louisiana and Mississippi gulf coast as a strong category 3 major hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale (SSHWS). Hurricane Katrina was the 11th named storm, 5th hurricane, and the 3rd major hurricane in the hyperactive 2005 North Atlantic Hurricane Season.
