- Very little footage has been shown the destruction of communities near the coast of Louisiana after Hurricane Ida. So we went down there to show what's really going on.
Hurricane Ida devastated every city on the coast of Louisiana. While the rest many other communities in Louisiana are without power, These communities are without homes, food, and water.
My church sent a team down to Houma from Wisconsin. The pictures just made you cry. Many people don't have the funds to build another home. So our team cleaned and put new roofs on the houses we thought we safe enough.
I feel your pain. I’m here in Galliano, we will rise again.
I'm with you on that. We're going to rebuild here. I'm about 10 miles north of you. Hang in there. This is home. Louisiana strong
I live in cocodre 240mph winds are something that you think are impossible but will show you how small you are when you see them
This breaks my heart guys. Mother nature can be a cruel mistress. I know you all will persevere, great job on the video.
Bad ass video bro, Louisiana stay strong
Ame praying hard for my Louisiana niebors in Cocadrie and south
So very heartbroken to see this devastation. My Cocodrie charters trip will always be such a wonderful memory for me especially because of the wonderful people who make the adventure such a great experience. Sending prayers to Jim, Margaret, Johnnie and all of the Cocodrie family.
It's horrible right now here in Houma.
well done, thank you for telling the story
So sad we stay at sandpiper Inn. It's unreal grand isle and cocodrie areas got slammed. Time it got to my place port Vincent la it was a strong cat2. That was nuts I can only imagine down there and not even a year yet since zeta
Cocodrie Charters is the home I grew up in. Sold after Hurricane Andrew of 92. I hope they can repair and come back. The water topped over the levee from the water feed Houma Navigation Channel. HOUMA's HNC will BE the end of our parish.
My poor niebors. I live in New Orleans n we were very fortunate to have minor damage. I pray 🙏 for my people ❤️
this storm broke me. my faimly had a camp in cocodrie. we lost everything. it completly broke me.
News never talked about the bayou communities and their struggles, it was a damn shame
The insanity is the things that made it and almost look untouched
Some houses are built too withstand cat 5 winds close to 200mph or more winds that's why...That cost a pretty penny for those types of upgrades..
@@michaelthompson9119 hell I know crack houses and campers that got untouched I'm not saying what your saying is wrong because it isn't but they do have houses held up by toothpicks that are standing
Instead of building a platform to place a single wide tailer on top of....maybe pour a few pads and allow tiny homes to be placed there instead. Ones in which are truly mobile and can evacuate before big storms. Everyone got their boats out of the water.... It would have been nice if they could have taken their homes too. Even if you have to build 2 or 3 tiny homes....you get plenty of time to hitch up and take them away before hurricanes come. Instead of home owners insurance, which can be super expensive....you just need rv insurance. Instead of overhead power lines, all the connections could be buried and come up through the pad. You could cover your connections before leaving and all you have to do when the storm is over is shovel debris off you pad, and hook up your connections once again. I know this sounds like a lot, but it is easier than rebuilding everything everytime a storm comes buy. Also... Its cheaper to park somewhere for a week than it is to rent a hotel room. There are plenty of empty parking lots and campgrounds out there.
Just think how easy clean up would be, if the majority of the debris was just trees and other organic matter. If all you had to do was clean up your yard and maybe fix a fence... That would be so much easier than dealing with a mess like this every time. You just cant build a hurricane proof house. Even if you do... That house is useless when it has no power for a month, is not accessible for a week or more, and you still have to clean up your property either way. Communities can have hao rules for rv or tiny homes so you dont have a bunch of people living in broke down school buses. The state can require those living in tiny homes to prove they are road worthy every 2 years through dmv inspections. Property tax can be determined by how many pads and utility connections are placed on the property... It can be done. If you are a resident and like this idea, please pass it on to your proper representative. If your communities were as mobile as possible, it would make clean up go much faster.
Ive seen A LOT qorse. Look at the drone video of Abaco after Dorian. There were a few miles where not one structure was even standing up! That being said Ida was a pretty tough chick.
I used to work with Johnny boy he’s an awesome guy
Cat 4 my ass my wind gauge clocked 195mph in Larose L. A.
Exactly. A category 5 is 157+mph. I didn't evaluate. I'm a couple minutes north of you. With my experiences with all the hurricanes I've been through in my life. This was the strongest. And it was alot stronger than any I've ever been through. This is home. Rebuilding in process. Louisiana strong
Port Fourchon has submitted data from the Laney Chouest. A peak wind gusts was recorded at 194 knots, 223 mph. This was at a height of 100’ and also an instantaneous gusts so there will be some reduction to determine surface sustained. Again, gusts in hurricanes can easily exceed sustained winds. Sustained winds are the average of the gusts over usually a period of 1 minute. Ida’s National Hurricane Center post-analysis will look at this for Category 5 designation.
@@voodoochild1806 Exactly. I've seen that too. With everything going on around here. It'll take time. But, sooner or later. It wouldn't surprise me if he'd say Hurricane Ida was actually a category 5
We were working in Chauvin the day before it hit 🥺
How far is the nearest Walmart from here ? How do they get grocery and supplies ? I’d love to live here
The damage caused by Ida pales in comparison to the damage coastal erosion is doing. The only difference is the speed in which the damage occurred from each one.
Very true. When I was a kid growing up there, areas like Lake Theriot were lush with trees. Now, ghosts forests. The salt water intrusion is a major problem.
@@johnulmerRacing I don't know if you still live around here, but you can't even get into Lake Theriot now. Some asswipe owns the land surrounding it, including the access canal, and blocked it off from the public. The thing that pisses me off, is that the lake itself is a PUBLIC lake, but yet we can't access it.
@@meauxjeaux431 No, I moved to Texas years ago, but I still have family in Houma. I bring my boat down there a few times a year, and have found it a complete waste of time to try and fish anything North of Lake Decade anymore. Everything is gated up. I saw the gate on Theriot. It amazes me how Louisiana is the only state in the country where you can own navigable water. TIDAL water......The level of absurd would be comical if it wasn't so sad. I was in a constant state of being told to leave when trying to fish Orange grove as well. At least at our camp in Cocodrie we could fish all we wanted.
@@johnulmerRacing Yeah, I have a nice 15' Alweld with a 40 4 stroke Merc, basically brand new, because I rarely take it out anymore. I just heard that the canal to the left of Bayou Black marina is now CLOSED ! UNREAL ! It has NEVER been in salt water, and I really need to sell it, but who wants a great sac au lait boat that you can't even use in fresh water anymore ?
@@meauxjeaux431 That's absurd. It makes me sad for all of my friends and family down there that have to deal with this. I have a Triton SF-21 with a 250 Merc 4 stroke, so I have the benefit of being able to cover a lot of water, but it's still an incredible pain in the ass to find fishable water. I just can't get my head around being able to own tidal waters. ALL of Louisiana should be embarrassed by that.
I wish people had enough money to get the hell out of there. But they can't and this will happen over and over again for sure. Sad price to pay to go fishing. Same thing with the midwest. How do you fall asleep at night?
it was worse in grand isle i believe
You know at 2:14 of the video you pasted me up and you know loney foret that’s my papa and yea
You when we read our bible and we look back on how the world was Adam and eve Noah’s ark Moses freed the slaves from edge David in the Lions den and mini mini more in the Bible part of life we may not understand but continue to lean all to God don’t lean onto own understand this world is just passing us bye we’re not here to stay here for ever get your souls right with Christ except Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior we can’t take nothing with us eternity is a long time where were your soul spend eternity that’s the most important thing that we should be Continue to live with because we don’t know the time the day nor the hour of our death or when the creator shall return
Sad
Why would you stay in 150 mph winds
Remember they are only 150 sustained at the peak and not over land. When you go a few miles inland wind drops by 20%. Golden Meadow reported gusts to 125. Gusts not sustained although there were definitely places that got higher gusts for sure.
@@markpalavosvrahotes5575 Golden meadows should of had higher than that it weakened slowing because the terrain
@@taylormatthews6086 Yes I am sure they did. My guesses are Grand Isle had sustained 140 gusts to 170 Golden Meadow had sustained 125 gusts to 150 and Huoma had sustained 115 gusts to 135 mph. This was a very strong hurricane.
@@markpalavosvrahotes5575 stronger than Laura last year🙃
@@taylormatthews6086 They were very close. Ida had a lower pressure. But the main problem was Ida moved SLOWER.
What really happened? Same thing that always happens. Will we ever learn.
KALI IS NOT DONE IN COMMIN SOON BE READY I AM....NOT THE BODY OR EVEN THE MIND LMAO
