ust got pictures back of my house in Mandeville just off I12 and 190

Extensive damage. Not livable. Tree crushed our rooms. So thankful that we left



I’m sorry to hear that man, but that’s the right attitude. Be thankful to be alive.

For posterity, here is a 24-h+ loop of #Ida making landfall in Louisiana. You can see the attempt of an ERC right before landfall & very slow decay moving over the marshes of SE LA. The eye also remained distinct up until moving poleward of #NewOrleans. A devastating storm. LINK


I wanted to make a gif, but the video is too long.

Considering the predicated storm surge and 140 mph winds, Grand Isle faired incredibly well. But to be honest, I tend to compare Louisiana coastal communities to Holly Beach after Rita.

Holly Beach 2005

I can get ATT to work via iMessage but that’s it right now. No texts to Androids
general psa: you can get in touch to cellphones via email if you know their number and carrier (the carrier converts the email to a text)

For example, ATT use 10 digit number @txt.att.net

For Verizon it’s the 10 digit number @ vtext.com

May be helpful in edge cases

Considering the wind, Ida had less surge than I thought.

Also…a lot of structures on Grand Isle were build after Katrina and Rita. So they meet the new building codes.

The first response to the group of people looting a beauty supply store...

I hate the looting discussions, because it is one reason people stay behind when they shouldn't.

You steal something after a storm that isnt to sustain or protect your life, you get prosecuted to the full extent of law. Pretty simple.
