| 摘要： | Hurricane Ida made a pair of landfalls at Grand Isle and Port Fourchon in southeast Louisiana August 29 near midday as a strong Category 4 storm. Ida came ashore with maximum sustained winds of 150 mph. and a central barometric pressure of 929 millibars, making it one of the strongest storms to ever make landfall on the Louisiana coast. Towing vessels stationed in the area clocked wind gusts of 179 mph., the strongest ever recorded in the United States.The storm came ashore on the 16th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina and just two days after the first anniversary of Hurricane Laura, both of which devastated southeast and southwest Louisiana, respectively.Ida carved a slow path of destruction through southeast Louisiana, devastating much of the bayou parishes of Terrebonne and Lafourche, along with impacts in Plaquemines, Jefferson, Orleans, St. Charles, St. James and St. John the Baptist parishes. The storm maintained much of its strength far inland, with the eye of the storm passing directly over portions of the Gulf Intracoast-al Waterway and the Lower Mississippi River, where it tossed barges, towboats and ships alike and brought navigation and waterway-based industry to a halt. |
