On August 29th—exactly 16 years after Hurricane Katrina made landfall—cities along the Gulf Coast of Louisiana were devastated by category 4
Hurricane Ida. Hurricane Ida made landfall near Port Fourchon, Louisiana early Sunday afternoon as a critically dangerous category 4 hurricane with
winds of 150 mph—destroying buildings, knocking out power, and causing widespread flash flooding.
