Hurricane Ida moves into U.S. Gulf Coast

On Sunday it was reported that Hurricane Ida had moved into the Gulf Coast. The storm has become a category 2 hurricane which is worse then when it went through Nicaragua last week. Reports have shown that within the next 36 hours this storm may possibly reach U.S. soil. Do to the storm the governor of Louisiana has declared a state of emerceny. Winds have said to reached 105 miles per hour with even higher gusts. On a favorable point, the storm is supposed to decrease as the week goes on. By tuesday it is predicted that the storm will lose its tropical characteristics. This is good for the southern states in the gulf coast area. Unfortunately this storm is still predicted to bring considerable amounts of rain to the gulf coast area.
