the flooding alone from this hurricane was anywhere from 1 foot to 10 feet deep depending on where you were in the city but 10 feet is almost as tall as a house. That is a lot of water. The craziest is the 135 billion dollars in damage that 's a lot of money for a hurricane to cause the most out of any hurricane actually (plyer, 2015).

A warm morning, sun shining with a slight breeze, and calm waters; the perfect day to learn how to water ski. I had never been water skiing before, I barely knew what it was, I was anxious to say in the least. I stood on the dock as my parents maneuvered the boat into the water, I’ve never been so uncertain. My family reassured me that everything would be okay as I was strapped up my life jacket. I stood on the edge of the boat, apprehensive, but I had to jump in the water, it was now or never.

The water was a little choppy so it would be difficult to ride it was around 11 am and the water was still a little cold and made me shiver. I was waiting in the water for a few minutes while they were getting the wake rope attached to the boat.
