The wider storm

Major hurricane Ida made landfall as a strong category four hurricane around 11:55am on August 29 near Grand Isle, LA. It then moved very slowly north through south central Louisiana and into Mississippi on August 30. It then turned northeast and moved across the Jackson metro area as a tropical storm and into northeast Mississippi as a tropical depression through the early morning of August 31. Ida brought tropical storm force gusts to portions of Mississippi, which brought down trees and power lines. Rainfall amounts of 4-8 inches occurred, which resulted in localized flooding.
