4:54Now PlayingAt least one person is dead and 1 million are without power as Hurricane Ida crashed into Louisiana on Sunday as a Category 4 storm with winds of up to 150 mph.
Reporting live from New Orleans, BNC correspondent Isabel Rosales says deputies in two parishes have started going out to assess the damage. The entire city of New Orleans, which consists of nearly 400,000 residents, is without power and it could take weeks for it to be completely restored. “When you have mother nature throw at you a storm this strong, with the surge, the wind, the rain that we’re talking about with Hurricane Ida, there’s going to be devastating impact,” Louisiana governor John Bel Ewards says in a clip on “Start Your Day.” As 200 people still wait on their roofs for rescue, an official added its catastrophic impact could leave the city inhabitable in the weeks to come.
All this and more on “Start Your Day.”
