There's been a lot of damage across the Gulf Coast, make no mistake about
it. Cars, boats, and houses have been crushed (by each other). Building
damage is extensive in places. places are under feet of water. Oil rigs are
adrift in the Gulf. 1.3 million are without power. Check out this Reuters
article for more information.
What we're not seeing at this point is mass casualties or entire cities
wiped out, which some feared would happen. That said, there are a few
cities in Louisiana which simply haven't reported in yet because they can't
be reached.
Here is a list of maximum wind speeds, minimum pressures, etc. from the
storm (scroll under the image)
