This is a sample of my Hurricane Katrina storm chase video. The footage was taken during Katrina’s first landfall on the Southeast Florida coast near Miami. Peak winds occur after the eye and are near 85mph with gusts to 105mph.

I remember the 2005 …
I remember the 2005 hurricane season. I was here in Miami, FL and it was sick. We got hit by Katrina, Rita, and Wilma. After the hurricane the roads were full of threes knocked down and some where huge. We put shutters up and we could feel all the wind passing by and pushing on our door. But we didn’t see any transformers exploding. We were without power for a long time, and when we final found a Publix with power and got food, the power came back.

that was probably the scariest night of my life. My house didn’t even have shutters.

Man, I really wish I could have seen one of those transformers explode.
All we got was a turned down tree in the backyard. Funny how we seriously didn’t hear a giant oak tree fall onto a fence when we were sleeping. I guess the wind droned it out. But yeah, hurricane are always so exciting, but terrifying at the same time.

Hi Kelly - This video was shot from The Residences at Merrick Park. The view at the beginning of the clip is looking north to northeast from the intersection of Salzedo St. and Altara Ave. The latter part of the clip (after the eye) is looking more easterly across Salzedo St. towards the east tower of the Residences.
