#NightlyNews #Hurricane #Ida
Don’t worry, old Joe had got your back lol
Better Joe than Mr. “Whose boat is this boat?” guy..lol
My brother there dear god
He live there or he went for work
Prayers to all involved.
Why are they still not using drones in the search for survivors? They would save so much time!
They do. But there is no thermal that if affordable
The winds were still pretty strong earlier today. That may have played a part.
Brother I’m so happy you and your baby are safe
Man 2021 is sure looking a lot like 2020
Worse
@DevanteTheDCGuy Reacts too I unfortunately agree I think 2021 is even worse
Prayers for Louisiana. In the power and authority given to me by our Lord Jesus Christ, people, you are completely healed in the name and blood of Jesus. Jesus, please give the people knowledge, wisdom and understanding where we are and what they have to do next and beyond this point. Get saved, get close to Jesus.give them new faith, hope and mercy Lord. Show them your plan and love. IN THE NAME OF JESUS. AMEN THE CHILD OF GOD.
First Hurricane Isaac, and then Hurricane Ida
I would never live anywhere that is below sea level. That is the beauty of free choice.
Right… if you have that free choice. Not everybody does.
@TwoBrokeGuyz That’s not really true, anyone can move sure it can be hard for some that don’t have money but there is the same services available in most major cities.
Time to abandon NOLA yet? I think so. Let it go to the sea.
Prayers, strength, light, love and protection to all ❤️🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽❤️
I hope my crawfishies are doing ok
the wind probably carried them to a new state
Why they did not leave?
They either think it wont be as strong or just dont have the finances to leave
New Orleans to Houston is normally a 5-6 hour drive,
it took my brother 14 hours.
I-10 West was a parking lot.
No contra flow during evacuation meant gridlock, many people had to abandon their vehicles due to mechanical failure or ran out of gas.
You don’t understand how many people needed to be evacuated. Not just New Orleans, but south Louisiana up to Baton Rouge, Mississippi coast as well and parts of Alabama. All those people on the road at once…. Going where? Storm is now heading for the Carolinas…..that’s why a lot of people in the New Orleans and Baton Rouge area were told to shelter in place. It takes time to co-ordinate a city evacuation.
@Voodoo Child yeah I tried that once as well…..got stuck on an interstate that looked like a parking lot while the storm was raging….it wasn’t fun.
I’m so sorry what everyone has been through, hold on to faith dont lose it. As long as loved ones survived you have everything, people cant not be replaced, material things can. Prayers for everyone.
“Your stomach? Where you’re carrying your baby??” As he looks at her stomach.
The questions that some of these reporters ask! Smh 🤦🏿♀️
@kattmilk, I was like, I guess he felt awkward looking at her belly, and had to say something dumb. Smh.
@kattmilk Uterus. Not stomach, but the uterus. The uterus is what is growing, despite people always thinking it’s the belly.
@Muscogee Tvffolope lol 😂
Bruh 😭 I can’t stand reporters on the field. They gone scrutinize any little thing.
He’s probably been up for two days. Cut him some slack.
Let’s not forget all the Americans left behind in Afghanistan.
The fecal government did the very same thing in Vietnam.
This is dumb. It’s been 16 years ago since the last one. They should have created pumps to pump water to the west coast.
JOHN 3:16 KJV “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
Thanks the government for making this hurricane 🌀
I believe the tower that collapsed was in Avondale.
I think that boat on the road was Hwy 90
They don’t call “catastrophic” cat 4, it was a 5
2:13 these reporters stupidly standing in high winds waithing for a flying stop sign or anything that would knock them senseless
Silly news man. I’m almost tempted to say it would have served him right.
Chill they have insurance.
With the heat wave still over the country, it’s going to get really hot but I find it hard to have empathy for those who refused to leave with the notice they had. We here are getting the last wave from this storm tomorrow for a good part of the day but at least the storm past and degraded. I am shocked the final wave is still out here actually.
Alligator infested flood waters ? Jesus help them
We in Cali complaining about 100 degrees hot weather we got it so good
Fires notwithstanding?
My grandpa was in this… the 1st thing that happened was water coming in his house, and the 1st thing he worried about was not him, it was the tv LMFAOO
🤣
Lmao
That’s me with my ps5
Covid lurks behind among this chaos. Floods and storms are when infectious and water borne disease spread. When my country was hit with floods many children and people caught water borne diseases.
Attention!
Americans wake up from your slums!
Stopped offended God as told!
God continued chastised mankind for so many sins and not turn back to God!
The Ten Commandments have to keep it!
You broke the ten commandments of God then the cup of wrath over flow already, and the times for him to chastise mankind!
There are no place will be spare except those who loved God and keep his :”Ten Commandment:”
Who is like God?
Cell signals come from satellites! Or do they?
Plot twist… that wasn’t his baby. 🤣
It isnt a good time to talk about plot twists .
@A and I It’s a joke, humor is good for the soul. He and his baby survived and that’s the good thing. I take it dark humor is not your forte. Never be disturbed by comedy that’s just it’s nature. Believe me I know what disasters like this are like and I’ve lived through many of them and I am praying for these people and their hardships but sometimes a little humor in a dark room is needed. There’s always time for a little humor to put a smile on someone’s face who might need it.
I am not ruling out that disasters do occur, but i do find this one like many others very suspicious. How convenient now that the troops have vacated the Afghanistan region a 4/5.0 storm happens. Look like a weather weapon was used.
That’s right. That’s what you reap when you sow lies about our, not your, Holy Spirit.
That’s what you get for abusing the water to terrify babies with you child abuse “baptism” rituals.
God went easy on you. You could have had these winds blowing at three times the speed for your trinity blasphemy too. Don’t push your luck.
Prayers, Folks
So glad he got that baby out.Sorry for everything your going through everyone.Stay strong. Praying for you all.
LEAVE LOUISIANA.
BIDEN SAID WE NEED TO FIX THE INTRASTRUCTURE IN AMERICA ! NOW YOUR SEE WHY / ITS NOT A GAME ! ELECTRICITY SHOULD BE RUNNING UNDERGROUND !
“But the Jews and the Christians say, “We are the children of Allah and His beloved.” Say, “Then why does He punish you for your sins?” Rather, you are human beings from among those He has created. He forgives whom He wills, and He punishes whom He wills. And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, and to Him is the [final] destination.” Quran [5:18]
Why does this guy single out Christian’s and Jews when all religions were caught in disasters…someone please give him a crazy pill.
@Keith Frank Other religions didn’t say they are the children of God. The verse speaks for itself.
Why wont these people leave ! Knowing what katarina did and on its anniversary! At a cat 4 people stayed just doesnt make since ! People need to start leaving if they can ! Get out of thier save your lives and your pets !!!😥🙏🙏
Adhan is the only tool Muslim use when heavy rain rains and hurricanes .
how are some of you charging your phones right now? just curious
Mother of 7 ? Wow ! I could only afford 2 as a working man !
With 5 diff dudes
most likely leeching off welfare. and im guessing all dads are gone, and the kids are gonna grow up to be drug addicted criminals like good ole floyd
Here come the Karens of the comment section..
Did anyone notice how rusty that tower was that fell. We need infrastructure NOW.
How this happens in rich privilege USA,but no a poor Cuba?Answer Cuban authorities contrary to USA lies take care of its people USA don’t..
Funny
Anything to avoid Afganistan and tge Americans left there.
If Biden doesn’t care about the Americans over seas how can he care about the Americans at home.
What is wrong with these democrats the blood of aborted babies not enough for them?
Purpose of life:
“To know him [(Baha’u’llah), the glory of God, the promised one of all ages] and to worship him”, obey his teachings. “Seek and ye shall fined”, The Baha’i’ Faith, the only salvation for this confused, mislead and lost humanity.
ocean apart säyme trä$h -.-
Why u standin in the middle of the street?! 🤣 😂
How can it be Months before electric on?? Come On..We CAN do better than that!! Stay Strong Help is on the way!!🙏
More dramatic news bite.
4 failed invasions – don’t forget The Beatles… no hits there |
Israel bars unvaccinated or untested teachers & healthcare workers from workplaces |
I wonder how we survived, In Texas, In the 40’s without electric power, indoor plumbing, and certainly no air conditioning?.
It happen before in 2005 or whatever . It going to happen again
About to be a mother of 7, we have nothing-we need help. TYPICAL!!!
People when the authorities say leave, please leave as there is no guarantee when u will be rescued in the aftermath.😨
Somebody made the suggestion there should be built a new city north of I12, and move most of the people thete after Katrina. Maybe something which needs to look at. Might be cheaper than a constant rebuilding.
I live in Houston. Between Loop 610 anf Nort Beltway 8 I would never live south of the South Beltway 8. Why? Storm surge.
Power lines are in real bad shape could take a month.. If people left I would stay where ever you went..
Please help them!!!
praying for you all hope you all get out get help to rebuild family stay together get all stuff y’all need
hey nancy pelosi this is why we need stimulus checks!
This is what government if for. Or would you prefer our money go overseas?
So you mean to tell me that only African Americans are being impacted by this hurricane? Why isn’t there any federal help for them?
Have you ever been to Louisiana? Its a state of pofolks. Although it doesn’t seem to have effected their appetite. At least not the ones in the video.
Why do these people stay?!
1) Its their home
2) Where would they go? You’re house?
The places hit by Power cuts should put power cables under ground
And pay 10 times as much? Who’s going to pay for that? Louisiana is not a wealthy state.
@Krane repairing the power cables at every storm would expensive as well perhaps money from the understructure could help with cost
Prayers for all the people in Luisiana and affected by this vicious hurricane. God help get them assistance and services ASAP. Thank God for FEMA, REDCROSS AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS ALREADY HELPING!
Why it is happening?
Sin.
Especially in New Orleans.
We need to 🙏 more.
And black people y’all supposed to flee away from them when that happens like that y’all supposed to be leaving flee away from them said the Lord !!
Servants of God should not be racist or hipocritical… fix yourselves first.
The Strength of IDA⬇️⬇️

The fact that your city wasn’t prepared for something like this to happen again after Katrina is saddening to me that your government official have shown, they don’t care about public safety, they don’t care about your house and all of your stuff you lost that they won’t be trying to replace or help you get replaces, safety measure should of been invented and put into place far long ago but weren’t, just curious to how many times is this gunna happen before somethings finally done about it.
It’s so discouraging seeing our “leader” president even struggling to get a sentence out.
“I can tell you this is not good” LOL WHAT DO WE PAY YOU FOR?!
Biden Stay strong praying for you’ll it’s a time to pull together
It is like war have broken out and distroyed everything 🙄
We could only wish war was this antiseptic. There’s only property damage.
Support your troops and athletes. You really just said you find it hard to empathize with those who did not leave! How dare you! Some people have nothing at the end of the month to leave with. You aught to be ashamed of yourself.
Not a place humans should live.
imagine all that destruction was made by man, now multiply the destruction and add millions of deceased… now you have the u.s military and what it does to dozens of countries worldwide.
The Lord will provide !!!
God bless them all. Omg
I pray that these people get help they need. Its hard to even imagine having to be displaced from what you’ve built and known for years of your life time. Louisiana is just no longer a stable land mass. Being that a large percentage of the state is swap, rivers and lakes Is only a matter of time before a large part of that state is completely underwater as part of the gulf of Mexico or Mississippi River permanently . Is appalling to see the lack of updated infrastructure to the power grid there in New Orleans as well as other infrastructure in various parts of Louisiana period.
Louisiana is NOT livable. Relocate to a livable state that is without natural disasters. HAVE COURAGE.
እግዚአብሔር ይመስገን!
This so sad. Why we have to beg for help when we have big equipment that could help and planes to send us help with water and ice. Shame on you Biden, you All southeast Louisiana that you will send water,food and ice, what a joke….Please, people don’t vote this man again…
I lots of people could not leave because some don’t have cars or money 🤑💰
And some 🥜 sitting behind there little computer talking about the president not able to talk 🦜 man shut up
Time for the charity scams to take place
America’s evil is not going unpunished.
People should not live in that area. It’s pointless and almost self destructive.
My prayers to all souls trapped in Nola . Nola is the heart and soul of the U. S.A .
Lol is it me or is it funny seeing an suv in front of the high water vehicle?
Those who have electric cars will have day&nightmares now because you need again fuel generator for electricity
video ruined by charade president biden
