Clark Miller, a friend of Kathryn’s and resident of Sulphur, a town neighboring Lake Charles, felt a similar frustration. He waited out the storm at his girlfriend’s place in Baton Rouge, going back the next day to survey the damage to his home – hit by a tree, with water damage – and his neighborhood. When he tried to talk about what he saw with his girlfriend’s roommate back in Baton Rouge, he was shocked to realize the news of “just how catastrophic the damage is” hadn’t made it there.
