Hurricane Katrina made landfall in Louisiana as a Category 3 storm on August 29, 2005.

Over 1800 lost their lives in the storm, and Katrina ultimately caused over $100Billion of damage.

The storm made a direct hit on New Orleans on 29 August 2005.

The city's dated system of levees and flood walls failed in more than 50 places, flooding 85 percent of the bowl-like city, most of which is below sea level.

The storm produced images never before seen in an American city: desperate masses wading through flooded neighbourhoods, bodies decomposing on city streets, and residents on rooftops pleading for help.

A million people had fled the area before Katrina arrived, but tens of thousands had lacked the means or ability to get out.

Many sought refuge at the city's Superdome, converted to an enormous relief shelter.

Hundreds of others were plucked from the rooftops of their inundated houses by military helicopters and taken to the city's convention centre.

Chai am I seeing Clearly
If am a worker there something will definitely happen, see Apple cause I go fit even chop full tree

You saying this because you don't work there, work there for one month and apple will be nothing to you.

Picking apples can be a painstaking job lasting several weeks.

But at this orchard, nature has done the farmers’ work for them in one night.

Tens of thousands of the fruit were blown from the trees by a devastating storm blowing wind at 100mph.

But as luck would have it, the windfalls did not end up bruised and useless because the orchard was flooded as a result of the bad weather.

Instead, the apples’ fall was cushioned and they weregently and neatly deposited on the ground, in perfect condition, as the waters receded.

The owners of the orchard, in Clonmel, County Tipperary, Ireland, had been fearing the worst as the powerful remnants of Hurricane Ophelia battered the British Isles.

But instead of a scene of devastation, farmers were surprised to find the trees still standing and the fruit that usually has to be picked lying neatly on the ground in a massive and evenly-spread pile.

Only a fraction of the crop remained on the branches to be picked by hand.
