Floodwaters surround damaged homes and businesses in the aftermath of Hurricane Rita in Cameron, La
Returning After Rita
Story aired: Monday, September 26, 2005



Though less destructive than Hurricane Katrina, Rita caused extensive damage when it roared ashore Saturday morning near the Texas-Louisiana border with 120 mph winds. Southern Louisiana was hard hit, but Houston, evacuated only a few days ago, suffered minimal damage and is allowing a staggered return of thousands of evacuees.

Guests:


Keith O'Brien, who has been reporting for the Boston Globe in the Gulf Coast region
