19:53 GMT 29.08.2021 (Updated: 13:23 GMT 06.08.2022) WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Hurricane Ida has made landfall in the US state of Louisiana as a Category Four storm, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) said on Sunday.
"1155 AM CDT [16:55 GMT]: #Ida made landfall as an extremely dangerous category 4 hurricane near Port Fourchon, Louisiana, with maximum sustained winds of 150 mph [241 kilometers per hour] and a minimum central pressure of 930 mb (27.46 inches)," the NHC tweeted.

Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards warned on Saturday that Ida could become one of the strongest storms to hit the state since the 1850s. New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell has urged people to self-evacuate.
Katrina and subsequent floods are estimated to have claimed between 1,245 and 1,836 lives in 2005, resulting in a major environmental disaster in southern Louisiana.
