Summary

It has been twenty years since Hurricane Katrina ravaged the Louisiana coast, specifically New Orleans, and federal agencies, first responders are reflecting on how their personal hardships pushed them to persevere and rebuild New Orleans. Hurricane Katrina struck in August of 2005 becoming the deadliest and costliest storm in U.S. history. The storm has also taught us many lessons about being truly prepared for a hurricane of that strength. FOX’s Tonya J. Powers speaks with FOX's Eben Brown who spent a month in New Orleans just hours after Katrina ravaged the city, and shares his stories of what he saw and experienced during one of the worst natural disasters to hit the United States.
