Katrinalization Edit Meaning

1.

The harsh realization that occurs when I am reminded of the huge damage Katrina caused on New Orleans. Although much work has been done, there is still a humongous amount of work left to be done.

While driving through New Orleans yesterday, I saw abandoned grocery stores with the waterline still visible and the windows all boarded up with plywood. The katrinalization that ensued caused a painful pang in my midsection.
