Hurricane Katia was the second major hurricane that struck in 2011 and was a Category 4 Major hurricane, which didn’t cause as much damage or loss of life due to good planning and forecasts. However, Hurricane Katia still caused 3 deaths and around $157 million in damages.

Although it didn’t cause as much damage as other hurricanes in 2011, Hurricane Katia was still one of the most powerful Category 4 hurricanes to hit the United States. The photo taken from space shows hurricane Katia gathering energy as it slowly develops into a Category 4 hurricane.
