Hello. I’m reporting about a major storm called Hurricane Katrina. Here is some news reported about it. Hurricane Katrina has claimed an unknown limit of lives and has just now disappeared. Hurricane Katrina went from a category 2 to a category 5. A hurricane is created in West Africa, where wet weather; winds and warm ocean waters power small storms; by the way, most of the storms stay ittsy bittsy, but some speed up and grow as they travel west. When these massive thunderstorms form a swirling pattern, the storm system is called a tropical depression, when the storms reach 40 mph; the storm system is called a tropical storm. More than 1,000,000 people had to leave their homes in search for clothes, food and water. The city of New Orleans was turned into a swimming pool because of Hurricane Katrina. I feel really badly for New Orleans city, or I should probably call it New Orleans the swimming pool now, you can help the needy by donating money to the American Red Cross to let the needy get things they might have lost by the hurricane. We at JHH Elementry School are holding some funds and getting teddy bears for the needy. Well, that is all the news I can inform at the time but next tine I will inform more news. Catch you later!!! {How do you think Hurricane Katrina got so powerful?}
According to CNN Student News, the Hurricane got its power from the warm ocean waters. The warmer than normal water being brought by the tropics to the higher latitudes are making conditions ripe for the development of hurricanes. Yikes!
