    That was unexpected.



    Took me a while to figure out what was going on, but when I did...



    Damn.

    are you all talking about the black out?

    cause other than that I didn't see anything.

    And that shit is not surprising in the least.

    Black out?

    I think it might just take a while to load, 'cause I could see everything fine. It's hard to tell from an aerial view, but once you see a pic, zoom in on a freeway and follow it. You should see where it disappears into the water, then you realize everything you've been looking at is exactly what you're looking for. (Meaning the flood.)

    You might have zoomed into an area that hasn't been photographed. Most of Google Maps is based off of older images. The Katrina images are probably provided so you can contrast between the two. Click on the SATELLITE and KATRINA buttons and you can see how it's effected everything.
