About this episode
Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans twenty years ago this week, leaving a trail of destruction across the city and the Gulf Coast. NPR journalists were on the ground covering the developing story of what became the costliest storm in U.S. history.
NPR’s Greg Allen reflects on covering the catastrophe and digs into the archives to remember the feel of the city after the storm.
