2005: Hurricane Katrina

In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina battered the Gulf Coast of the United States for eight days, leaving a devastating path of destruction in its wake. The Category 5 hurricane, which remains the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history, killed more than 1,800 people and caused $125 billion in damage.
