It was the name of a hurricane that did n't do as much destruction as it was thought it would .Gustav was a the name of a mentally - ill man who drove through New Orleans doing a lot of damage .Gustav was a tornado that whipped through the south and did major damage everywhere .Gustav was the mayor who had to help all of us after the storms hit many areas in New Orleans , LA .
Who may be the Gustav I am referring to in my statement ?
Gustav did n't do as much as we were afraid it would . Parts of LA took some real damage , but so far New Orleans is still intact . Our area got a lot of wind and rain , some tornadoes , but we made out just fine , with just some limbs and trees down , and a relatively short power outage considering how many trees were down on the lines ( around 6 - 7 hours ) .
