Default hurricane katrina on google maps...
Crazy...dunno if this has been posted, but my curiosity just lead me to look up New Orleans on google maps, and I then noticed they have added an extra option which allows you to view an up to date satelite photo after the hurricane.

http://maps.google.com/

Search for "17th street, new orleans" or something. Zoom in, then select "satelite" have a look around, then click the red "katrina" button....

Looks more like a river with some roofs poking out to me!
