The following picture was taken from the third
story balcony of Saint Stanislaus College
located next door to Our Lady of the Gulf Church
in Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi on the morning
of August 29th, 2005. This is believed to be the
initial tidal wave from Hurricane Katrina. The
tidal wave was approximately 35 to 40 feet high.
When it slammed into the beach front communities
of Bay Saint Louis and Waveland Mississippi, it
completely destroyed 99 of every structure along
the beach for 9 miles and over 1/4 of a mile
inland. The destruction only started there. The
flooding that continued inland destroyed the
contents of all but 35 homes in these two
communities of approximately 14,000 people.
