There were many long term effects of Hurricane Katrina these include:
buildings and roads were destroyed
people became homeless
there was massive financial loss
there is overcrowding in surrounding countries because the people of New Orleans fleaed
And many more :)
There are also many short term effects such as:
Flooding
Phone lines and other comunication types were down
many people died
Dehydration and food poisoning for people who stayed in the New Orleans at the time of the hurricane.
and more
hope this helps
Damaged houses, searching for survival in the rubble. 50,00 people died but now has risen to 200,000 people. All government buildings were destroyed in the area.
There were also landslides and a little bit if liquefaction.
Hurricane Katrina devastated the city of New Orleans (and probably some others on the way) causing prolonged flooding and mass exodus and homelessness. The parishes of southeast Louisiana suffered the same sort of damage as in Hurricane Betsy in 1965, but on an even greater scale. In some areas east of New Orleans, nearly all of the structures were destroyed or irreparably damaged.
The Gulf Coast of Mississippi suffered the same catastrophic storm surge damage as it suffered in Hurricane Camille in 1969, with structures demolished as much as a mile from the shore. Huge barges that housed gambling casinos were sunk or washed inland. Roads and bridges were washed away.
Coastal Louisiana lost a substantial part of its offshore barrier islands, and extensive loss of wetlands. The oil industry was hard hit by destruction of onshore and offshore facilities.
It was reported that more than 1,800 people died, and more than $81 billion dollars in damages was caused. Many residents who lost homes and businesses would never return to the area. Those who did faced years of reduced employment, reduced public services, and a general lack of economic opportunities. The city of New Orleans lost more than half of its residents to less-damaged suburban areas. Some areas would never be restored, and others could take a generation or more to rebuild.
Well the primary effects are the things that happen immediatly after it has happened... e.g bulidings/roads being destroyed
secondary is where things happen after a short period of time e.g crops not growing, nowhere to live
earthquake shave primary violent impacts followed by long-lasting secondary impacts. in sparely populated areas, large earthquakes might not cause many casualties. in big cities, even relatively small earthquakes could kill thousands of people. while the primary effects are dangerous and deadly, the secondary effects, especially if help is not available or adequate can be much worse. Though thousands died in the earthquake in Haiti in early 2010, the longer lasting effects are proving just as deadly, according to Common Dreams.
- the city turned into a violent place
- many residents had nowhere to live and moved to other cities
- people still had to pay mortgages on their ruined homes
- governments had to spend billions on damage and uninsured property losses
Short terms:
Flooding
Phone lines and other comunication types were down
many people died
Dehydration and food poisoning for people who stayed in the New Orleans at the time of the hurricane.

what are the secondary effects of hurricane katrina
i dont know but it has something to do with willies
Too long
Hurricane Katrina caused extensive damage throughout the Gulf Coast and became the costliest hurricane to hit The United States at an estimated $81 billion. See the related link for more information.
The city of New Orleans took quite a beating from Hurricane Katrina and the flooding that happened in the aftermath. It is still recovering from many of the after affects. However, the tourist areas of the city have reopened after the storm.
Answer5 Days to get water
As with all tropical systems, Hurricane Katrina initially started as a disturbance in the pressure field of the tropics. It was gradually able to get itself organized in the vicinity of the Bahamas due to a favorable environment that included warm sea surface temperatures and minimal wind shear. It further developed into a tropical depression, and then rapidly strengthened into a tropical storm and a hurricane. as it was lifted to the northwest towards Florida by the upper-level steering winds. Many hurricanes form every year in the tropical oceans, and several achieve strength and size greater than that of Katrina. It should be clear that these are naturally-occurring storms, and Katrina was no different in its behavior - it just happened to hit a highly-populated city, which has long been identified as being vulnerable to hurricanes. It is possible that anthropogenic global warming may have enhanced it somewhat, but there is no way to make this determination. Whether it did or did not, New Orleans should have been prepared for a hurricane of this magnitude (it was only a category 3 when it made landfall) for a long time, and the government response was lacking.
"Extinct" is not a word that is used with hurricanes. Hurricane Katrina has long since dissipated; it no longer exists.
about 10 mins
It took then a long time
The coverage of Hurricane Katrina did not directly change views about race in America. It highlighted certain races being devastated and had some short-term effects of sympathy, but the long-term views are not changed.
Less than a month.

He was in Crawford, Texas on his long vacation.
it was a hurricane - not a cyclone but i dont know how long it took it was a hurricane - not a cyclone but i dont know how long it took
The names of people killed by Hurricane Katrina would be a long and stresful list, to me and to the families effected. However, sources generally agree that at least 1,833 people were tragically killed by the hurricane.
Some of the long term solutions to prevent the staggering losses of Hurricane Katrina included restoring the Natural Coastal buffers and establishing a no excuses clean-up policy. It was hoped that the world would focus on global warming
