- This video was taken before and during the landfall of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. This was a very sobering hurricane chase from ground zero. I didn't film most of the hurricane due to safety concerns. I departed Saturday afternoon (August 27) heading towards Slidell, LA. Traveling down I-59, contraflow was put into order by evening as hurricane warnings were posted for the coast. Thirty miles of I-59 were turned all northbound as traffic streamed out of the greater New Orleans and Slidell areas. I briefly slept the night in Mandeville, LA. As I entered the heart of downtown Gulfport within one-half mile from the ocean, devastating destruction began to occur. More power poles collapsed, sending power lines strewed about the area. Incredible surf wildly swirled off the sides and roofs of buildings. The air was filled with debris and alarm sirens from businesses. Large structures failed and crashed down, sending more debris into the sky. Wind gusts over 100 mph were common in the stronger squalls. I hunkered down at a concrete-reinforced bank building with a sturdy overhang near 18th Street as my final position for the remainder of the landfall.

😮 Greetings from coastal Mississippi and Twelve Oaks plantation. I survived Camille in 69 and Katrina in 05. To this day l am still haunted by sidewalks leading to nowhere. Our coast has recovered. We are still the shining Jewel of the South.
This is some great footage! Pure raging eyewall winds. Nice job!
Never seen this one before. It seems like yesterday. We lost everything.
8:24 had to be a tornado.
Ik Mississippi had quite a few :(
Gulfport getting *Katrina* full on would have suffered the worst of it
I would leave 4 days in advance
Omg hurricane patricia, Was pretty much the Same in my town, Cotija Michoacán México
