I really fear for what New Orleans faces later. Betsy was bad and Ida is about 12 mb stronger taking a very similar track.

You just need to keep hitting play. That camera is still functioning.

New Orleans may be in the secondary eye wall for much of today due to its orientation and movement.

They said about 6ft but I don’t know how accurate that is.

It was mounted 7ft on the pole per Severe studios... John Humphress said he lost connection to the cam

Apparently first time in history 2 years in a row back to back 150 mph landfalls

And both in Louisiana!

Looks to be headed close to or just east of Houma pending any wobbles and eventual turn.

- Ida ties with the 1856 Last Island hurricane and Laura (2020) as the strongest hurricane to make landfall in Louisiana.
- Ida ties with six other storms (Last Island 1856, Indianola 1886, Florida Keys 1919, Freeport 1932, Charley 2004 & Laura 2020) as the 5th strongest hurricane to make landfall on the U.S. mainland.
- Ida ties with Donna 1960 as the 9th lowest pressure for a landfalling U.S. hurricane.

For those that are curious, I believe the Camera was a Samsung S20 Ultra Fitted With a 5100mAH battery ... Mounted inside a pelican case 7ft on a metal pole.
