I take offense!!! But I was in New Orleans for Betsy with gusts up to 200 mph and winds I think 150plus. It was a nite to remember and the devastation was something but there was not a catastrophe. Now I was also in Audrey which hit Cameeron Louisiana with 600 people killed. It was incredible,,snakes killed alot but the water did the most. That was in the early fifties and I was inland but people lost roofs etc. There was also one in 1948 that I spent as a little girl under the dining room table with blankets piled up,,mother thought the house would come down. Our neighbor's garage did and in the middle of the storm I remembered my pet chickens were outside in a garage,,my father went out into the storm and rescued them,,I thought he was a hero after that, my mother said he was a fool!!!
