        As a hurricane, Ida knocked out power to all of New Orleans and inundated coastal Louisiana communities on a deadly path through the Gulf Coast. Forecasters said Ida would bring damaging winds, possible flash floods and life-threatening storm surge.http://apne.ws/jSByCmN

        Ida’s torrential rains have moved mostly into Mississippi as more than a million people in Louisiana and Mississippi are left without power. Officials have promised to start the massive rescue effort as the weather breaks and the sun rises.http://apne.ws/PljmtLU

        If I understand correctly some of the most destructive hurricanes were not of the highest category... because it is the flooding that causes most destruction and not the wind

        Praise God that it de-escalated. I was one of many people saying prayers for NOLA last night… ❤️

        And yet, we’re going to rebuild New Orleans,again, in the exact same place and the exact same thing will happen again… “Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” Churchill
