Hurricane Katrina strikes New Orleans at 8:00 AM with winds at 150 MPH and a storm surge of 18 feet.
As the Category 4 surged ashore just east of New Orleans on Monday, FEMA had medical teams, rescue squads and groups prepared to supply food and water poised in a semicircle around the city, said agency Director Michael Brown.
Brown, in a telephone interview with The Associated Press, said the evacuation of the city and the general emergency response were working as planned in an exercise a year ago. I was impressed with the evacuation, once it was ordered it was very smooth.
Levee break at 17th street floods about 20% of the city.
At 11:00 AM, FEMA Director Brown arrives in Baton Rouge at the State Office of Emergency Preparedness.

Under Secretary Brown has led Homeland Securitys response to more than 164 presidentially declared disasters and emergencies, including the 2003 Columbia Shuttle disaster and the California wildfires in 2003.
You've got some great posts, but let's face it. The folks calling for Mike Brown's head have absolutely no interest in facts. I guarantee most of them already know FEMA was well organized prior to the storm's impact, and they simply DO NOT CARE. They want a scapegoat.
Brown is not the only one who should go. When there a bad apples in the barrel they require being extracted. In no way is that an adverse reflection on the President. Your die-hard defense of Brown only harms the President and feeds directly into the hands of the radical left.
Hillary & her cohorts were waiting for something like this, so she & the rest of power hungry sellouts could dig their backstabbing claws into President Bush's anti-terrorist policies, via sneaking through the back political door. The radical Left's goal is dividing this nation and once again pushing this country into the dangerous direction of appeasement, lowering our guard while we are at war with hordes of barbarian Mohammedan madmen.
Replacing Brown quickly deflates the air out of the Dem's 'hot air' political balloon.
Hurricane season is not over yet....
