Louisiana declares emergency ahead of Hurricane Ida

Published: 11.08.09, 23:08 / Israel News

Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal declared a state of emergency Sunday as the US Gulf Coast braced for the arrival of Hurricane Ida, which was making its way across the Gulf of Mexico as a Category 2 storm.

 

A hurricane watch was in effect from southeastern Louisiana to the Florida Panhandle, meaning hurricane conditions were possible in the next day and a half. The emergency declaration is a precaution that frees up state resources for any emergency situations. (AP)
