Bay St. Louis Before and After Katrina Photos
The top photo was taken off the coast of Bay St. Louis, Mississippi in July 1998. In this photo, notice the large multi-story houses, some of which are built on stilts to protect the homes from flooding. The bottom photo shows the same location two days after landfall of Hurricane Katrina. The fierce winds and storm surge destroyed homes and left only their foundations. The trees were denuded of all vegetation, in sharp contrast to expected levels of vegetation in late August
