Katrina intensified into a Category 5 giant over the warm water of the Gulf of Mexico on a path to come ashore early yesterday in the heart of New Orleans. That would make it the city's first direct hit in 40 years and the most powerful storm ever to slam the city.] I'm really scared, ... I've been through hurricanes, but this one scares me. I think everybody needs to get out.
