Which of the following factors contributed to Hurricane Katrina’s becoming one of the deadliest natural disasters in US history?

1 answer:

8 0

Answer: Heavy rainfall from the hurricane overwhelmed aging levees and flooded areas that were below sea level and populated mainly by families with low incomes.

Explanation: The third option also counts but it was more about the destruction it caused than "where" it caused destruction. The amount of rainfall, the strong wind onshore, the state of the tide, and even the size of the hurricane itself killed over 1,200 people leaving an estimated cost of $108 billion in property damage.

Basically, Hurricane Katrina sucked cause it killed people but to me, its pretty awesome. Natural disasters are pretty cool.
