Tales of a Weather Paparazzi (taken down)

Update (9/30): Seems like Current took this set of videos down. I'll keep looking for it else where and re-post if I can find it.

As I type this, Hurricane Season is in full bloom. With Gustav now taking a back seat to the very scary TBD that is Ike, I started looking for interesting video on hurricanes. That led me to this 5-part, first person series about self-described "Weather Paparazzi" Doug Kiesling and his experience in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. Some might refer to this as "weather porn," but if you've never been in a hurricane this is some pretty intense footage.

Part 1: The Day Before

Part 2: New Orleans, From Dusk Until Dawn

Part 3: Katrina On Canal Street

Part 4: The Escape From New Orleans

Part 5: New Orleans, The Day After Katrina
