That's so bad.

Flash flooding and tornados worry me more than the hurricane itself. At least with a hurricane, you have some warning of what is coming.

NE states Ida deaths as of today is 25...none from tornadoes, but all from flood related drownings.

Why isn't there a single thread about the floods that devastated the Northeast?

It's literally a mass casualty event. Dozens dead so far across multiple states with many homes and businesses under water, lots of missing persons... and many still trapped.

Yet, DEAD SILENCE about this on GLP?

Why?

As of right now I got the death toll from Ida as 27 adding the family of 5 found dead in a home. This death toll is very preliminary and will continue to climb possibly for the next 2 months as missing persons are eventually found deceased.

Expecting the final death toll to be well over 100 by time it's all said & done. And with the tornado & flood damage that happened over night I wouldn't be surprised if Ida takes the #3 spot for most costliest hurricane right behind Katrina and Harvey.
 Quoting: TeknaBuzz


At least 41 people are now known to have been killed due to Storm Ida as it churned through the north-eastern US.

They include at least 23 people in New Jersey, Governor Phil Murphy announced on Thursday afternoon. Most of them had been stuck in their vehicles as the waters rose.

At least 14 others lost their lives in New York, including 11 people who drowned while trapped in their basement apartments.

Another was reported dead in Connecticut. Three people also died near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

An update on the nursing home situation. Looks like they have moved most of the residents now and are working to move the remaining. Look at what the owner of the facility said though:


THE INVESTIGATORS: Four dead as nursing home residents evacuated to warehouse during Ida

Records obtained by the 9News Investigators show all of the nursing homes are owned by Bob Dean, Jr.

WAFB tried to call a number listed for him but did not get an answer.

WAFB’s Scottie Hunter went to Dean’s downtown office, dean enterprises but the lights were out, the door was locked and no one was there.

Dean was able to be reached by phone late Thursday afternoon. He says they did a good job given the circumstances.

“We only had five deaths within the six days and normally with 850 people you’ll have a couple a day so we did really good with taking care of people,” said Dean.

Crime continues to increase. They set up a shelter at the convention center in Baton Rouge again. Not sure if this is related but I wouldn't be surprised.

 Quoting: Daniel Higdon


Nope not in connection with the new shelter. This link says the crime happened Saturday night, just before the storm came in on Sunday. LSU just getting around to sharing this.

LSU released vague details of a trio of people wanted for what the university said was an "attempted first degree murder" attack in the parking lot of a dorm ahead of Hurricane Ida.

<snip>

LSU did not release specific information but said the incident happened Saturday, August 28 around 10:30 p.m.

Keep an eye on a tropical wave in the gulf of Honduras.

Right now NHC gives it only a 30% chance of becoming a TS, but several models show it to be in the GOM by Sunday and a TS by Tuesday.

From there, the models are all over the place, but some show a hook shot to Florida pan handle or peninsula like LGEM(SHIPS Logistic Growth Equation Model).

That piece of garbage, Dean, not only owned the nursing homes he also owned the warehouse where these poor people were sent.

Fox8 had an interview with one of the patients who was held at the warehouse. He said they were given 1/2 an egg and 2 pieces of bread for breakfast. He is a dialysis patient who was not given his meds at the proper times. They were put on mattresses on the floor and there were lots of cockroaches.
