> [@Pass McGass](#): > > If this were true then how come I dont have the option for blizzard insurance? it took my post about 20 mins to be misunderstood but thats ok. I will try and clear up what i meant. In a severe blizzard like the one in N. Dakota with excessive wind and 44 inches of snow, that is increadibly dangerous. If you have even been out on the plains you would notice how flat everything is. Combine 44" of snow and high winds and you will have ridiclious snow drifts. If you were stranded or outside somewhere during the blizzard you will probably freeze to death in -50 to -60 degree wind chills. It would be a complete white out making travel impossible. If someone was caught outside frost bite would begin to set in within minutes IMO conditions inside that blizzard are more deadly and dangerous than the AFTER Katrina conditions. It’s true the blizzard wont really damage many buildings, but odds are the power was knocked out from the high winds. It doesnt sound like fun to me to be out of power and possibly heat during that blizzard however… once the snow melts things will basically go back to normal, whereas NO is still fucked and ravaged from the flood waters once the snow melts and power is restored in N Dakota life returns to normal, but NO will never be back to what it was. The only point i was trying to make is that conditions were far more extreme DURING the blizzard, then the POST-katrina mess. If it came down to actually riding out the blizzard or the hurricane, i would take my chances riding out the blizzard. hurricanes are by far more deadly and have far more destructive power than blizzards have. ---

I’m not 100% sure, but i think i remember reading somewhere that Katrina actually hit NO with less strength than was originally thought, and that it was possibly a cat 3. If i get bored later i will try and look it up ---

DURRING or AFTER v. AFTER Hurricane Katrina was the worst natural disaster in U.S. history. It killed 1,300 people, ravaged five states along the Gulf Coast and all but destroyed New Orleans. So you can’t really compare ANYTHING with the worst natural disaster in US history… ---
