Aerial view of Hurricane Katrina's eyewall, showing a vast expanse of white storm clouds layered beneath a deep blue sky, photographed from a NOAA hurricane hunter aircraft.

Katrina Eyewall View (8-28-05): NOAA P-3 hurricane hunter civilian flight engineer Dewie Floyd took images of Hurricane Katrina's eyewall as the storm made landfall on Aug. 29, 2005. Very ominous looking. Who would have known this was the cause of our destruction?
