NPR NEWS GRAND ISLE, Louisiana The National Weather Service has posted a heat advisory today for areas that include New Orleans and Baton Rouge. IDA is blamed for at least 17 deaths in Louisiana and Mississippi. President Biden was in Louisiana three days ago to survey some of the damage left by IDA. Tomorrow the president will get a look at damage caused by the remnants of IDA in New York and New Jersey. At least 44 people were killed in those states, many by flash flooding. This is NPR news from Washington from KCRW. I'm Cherry Glazer Way state and local headlines. There's just over week to go now in California's recall election and the campaigns are heating up. Both Governor Gavin Newsom and leading Republican candidate Larry Elder are holding events throughout the state. They're accusing one another of putting Californians lives. At risk. During an appearance at the Hall of Justice in downtown Los Angeles Elder Slam Newsome for supporting progressive prosecutors like L. A County district attorney George Gascon. It's absolutely outrageous. There's a direct line between the crime going up. And soft on crime data is like the one we have in the Bay Area and like the one we have here and governor Gavin Newsom. Meanwhile, Newsome appeared in San Francisco's Chinatown with Asian American leaders. State Attorney General Rob Bonta was at his side. Larry Elder Is The exact opposite of this governor and is very dangerous. His leadership will lead two lives lost, his leadership will lead to health harm. His leadership is misogynistic and anti immigrant. It is not who we are. New Public Policy Institute of California poll found that 58% of likely voters do not support recalling Newsom. The last day to vote in the recall election is September 14th. California is one step closer to stripping badges from bad cops. After an emotional debate, the State Assembly has advanced a bill that would strip licenses from officers who engage in serious misconduct like excessive force dishonesty. And racial and gender bias. KCRW's Tara Patreon has the details. California is one of just four states that doesn't have a way to decertify bad police officers. This bill hopes to change that. A similar proposal was brought on after the murder of George Floyd last year, but it failed in the state's capital. The measure just approved.

Uncovering Ida experiencing Ida. I also experienced Hurricane Katrina here 16 years ago. And a couple of general observations first off in terms of the city. I think there was far more damage in Katrina, then from Ida. Now outside the city. It's the exact opposite a lot more damage outside of New Orleans proper, especially to the parishes, the bayou parishes to the southwest, Tremendous, tremendous property damage. In Homa places like that mortgage city, Thibodeau and then further south down towards Grand Isle, But I can tell you having experienced both Alison but in the aftermath of Katrina I and my colleagues from CBS and really colleagues with the other media who were here really feared for our lives because of the lawlessness, especially the first 345 days after Katrina hit. I remember Katrina hitting on Monday, and the storm itself wasn't that bad. But then, of course, the levees gave away in the city flooded and we all know the history, but I haven't had that sense at all with item in terms of these past several days after either came and going on Sunday came and went on Sunday. I haven't felt any kind of personal danger or or fearing for my safety. I'm curious, Jim. I know that, as you just said you were there for for Katrina. And I know you've also been talking to people that are without power and food and water and might be for weeks. I wonder. If people there are wondering what the heck is the government doing that This is a huge problem. All of these years later, I see a lot of people saying, Where's FEMA? Where's FEMA? Where's the help for us? Yes, it's you effect here is the class shape of deja vu all over again. But yes, In terms of the power situation, many of these people are reliving the misery and, frankly, the hell they went through after Katrina without power without any condition. Obviously, New Orleans is a warm place and even this time of the year Every day. It's it's in the nineties, mid nineties with the heat index well and well above 100. It's just miserable.

Some neighborhoods had to be evacuated cars and buses there were stranded in floodwaters and now thousands in the region are without power earlier this afternoon. What twister roared through. Parts of annapolis maryland pulling down trees and power poles and in louisiana. Where this same storm system tore apart the state's power grid. Some low lying communities remain largely underwater. Many hospitals in the state are still running on generators and again today. The governor warned evacuated residents knocked comeback yet. The water system is really poor. Electricity is non-existent. Communications actually started getting a little bit better today. We have not figured out the fuel situation. Don't come back before the paris tells you that they are ready to receive you because you're just going to create another demand on a system that can't withstand the demand that currently has for more.

Ida Updates: The Latest on the Storm's Aftermath in Louisiana

"Hurricane Ida are now bringing intense rain and flood risk from Virginia into Maine. Louisiana, which took the full brunt of a Category four storm when it hit on Sunday, is still assessing the damages. Several people were killed and the death toll is expected to rise. The governor warning residents who fled the worst hit areas not to come back where there's still no basic infrastructure. President Biden has announced he's headed to New Orleans Friday to check out the damage he'll meet with state and local leaders. NPR's Debbie Elliott reports hundreds of thousands of people in Louisiana. Still have no electricity. The lights are back on for some in New Orleans, but much of the region remains without power, water, sewer and communication systems are also severely damaged. New Orleans has set up cooling stations to help residents cope with the heat and humidity. Makeshift distribution points are also handing out food, water and ice in the city and in harder hit parishes to the south and west. Meanwhile, search and rescue teams are working in flooded communities, and authorities are trying to get a handle on the scope of the destruction. Jefferson Parish officials, for instance, say the barrier island of Grand Isle is uninhabitable. Debbie

"To start listening. The second person has been confirmed dead in louisiana. After hurricane item it landfall south of new orleans as a category four storm yesterday. Sixteen years to the day after hurricane katrina hit louisiana today. Louisiana's governor john. Bel edwards said. This i will just tell you that. I had a number of conversations overnight and today with parish presidents and other officials who believed that the death count attributable to the hurricane will go up because they see catastrophic damage in certain places that they have every reason to believe we're inhabited at the time. The damage occurred. There are more than two thousand people in shelters in louisiana. Tonight the levees around new orleans did not fail as they did in katrina more than a million people do not have power in louisiana. There is no power in the city of new orleans crews are working to restore power beginning with hospitals that are now relying on generators louisiana power company says it may take up to three weeks for some people in the areas to How their power restored ida is now a tropical storm moving north through mississippi today president biden told the governors of louisiana and mississippi and mayors in both of those states how to get more help from the white house the main thing. I want to make clear at all of us. We're providing any help we that you're going to need and so i've got As i said i've got my senior adviser cedric richmond. Here with me. Y'all know him. He's a new. Orleans native congressman. Louisiana was a congressman louisiana's second district for ten years. He knows he knows the people and and who have been affected by and he knows how to get things done in government while fema is our lead for on the ground response. If there's something you need needs my attention. Cedric sure direct line direct line in the white house throughout this recovery. And whatever you need go to cedric. You'll get to me. We'll get you what you need if we can't join us now. Msnbc anchor olneyville. She who is in new orleans l. What is the latest tonight The latest is that this is a dark dark city. This is a roofing from a nearby building that has collapsed. I'm here in the french quarter. Which is you know would look like this if you had lights. But there are no lights anywhere in new orleans new orleans and that's because while the city's levees and pumps and all that which they spent about sixteen billion dollars on since katrina worked to keep this city dry during the storm. Take a look at this. This is decatur street. There are no lights anywhere. There's no power going to anywhere in this city whatsoever energy. The company that produces the power. He says that all eight transmission lines are dead. So there are bucket trucks and people going around fixing you know trees falling on power lines. They're repairing all of that but it doesn't matter because there's no power coming from the source energy says that they will try and get power to most people within seven to ten days now some people power before that The sewage and draining company Authority here they obviously need to be able to sanitize water. So they're getting some help from the electric utility police infrastructure like streetlights. They're going to try and get to them. First hospitals but if you are a commercial or a residential customer. You're not getting power if you do not have a generator in new orleans. It's a densely packed. City as you know lawrence o. A lot of people don't have generators here. You're not getting power for seven to ten days in the hard hit areas. They're saying it's going to be three weeks or longer. Some of the parishes outside of new orleans which did flood by the way where levees did overtop. They are not getting power for a while in tonight. Even though there was very little loss of life in new orleans. I believe we've only got one confirmed death in the city there. There is a lot of threat. In outlying parts of louisiana in those parishes that border orleans parish to the west there are still rescues underway. In some of those places do south of us in lafitte Grand isle apparently about forty people there although they chose to stay there so they are somewhat prepared to write it out so this is not the catastrophe that a lot of people were worried about. It's an entirely different catastrophe and we can only hope in these hot muggy nights that people in the city get their power back fairly soon lawrence l. Is there any temporary plan on power or is it. Just sit and wait until the system begins to work again. Yeah the the mayor's actually said if you left the city don't come back. Do not come back. you're going to. You're going to be a hot place. People are actually walking around you too many of them but people are walking around because their houses have become very hot. Gets up to about ninety in the day right now. It feels like one hundred because as you know. This is humid city. There are shelters and cooling centers that are being opened Not everybody's figured out how to use them just yet. Because i think there are hoping this changes soon but as they realize on day two and day three day. Four that it's going to be this hot. They may start to see some of those places being used alabel. Thank you really appreciate it. Pleasure thank you. Join us now lieutenant. General russel honore former commander of the joint task force for hurricane. Katrina what general. What is your assessment of the situation and what needs to happen next. Well we've got good code nation between the state federal government and the parish. Good communications at all points.

"Be through the roof whether events always do that For television networks. Do hope that everybody You know did much better than anticipated. I know some of those areas like homa. Ah louisiana in grand isle. I'm really took the brunt of it. And i'm sure that even in the new orleans and metro area wasn't great. I don't even know why. I started with whether i think one of the reasons was. Is that again. This upcoming weekend is gonna feel like the beginning of fall. It's not technically the fall. It feels like fall when we get to labor day weekend And with labor day weekend comes the beginning of football season now. We had a couple of college games over this past weekend. But i can't wait for football season. I'm talking about real football. The preseason is over thankfully and mandate nfl teams handle the first three game. Preseason in a variety of ways. I have no idea which way was right and which way was wrong. And perhaps there's not even a right or wrong. Answer to this ron rivera. As way was to sit everybody saturday night against the ravens to ensure they get to the opener. On september twelfth against the chargers healthy john harbaugh took the other route and lost his starting running back. J dobbins for the year to a torn c. l. Tom brady was out there with his defending super bowl. Champion team slinging balls against the perceived worst team in the league. Houston the other night. Aaron rodgers didn't take a snap in the entirety of the preseason nor did just in herbert who will start for the chargers here in september twelfth. He in pretty much every other star player for the chargers. Sat all three games. While buffalo's josh allen the other day through twenty six passes on three drives in the first half in buffalo's win over the packers. I mean we could sit here and argue and debate and discuss this topic in which way right and which way is wrong until we're blue in the face. I'm not really interested in it very rarely if ever do we get into this kind of discussion. End of regular season in december january talking about. Oh if they just would have handled august differently. Unless of course there's like a serious august injury in a preseason game like jk dobbins or worse if you were to lose a starting quarterback a really good starting quarterback that has season-long implications but anyway we get real football this weekend with a full slate of college games and then the nfl. Season opens up. September ninth a week from thursday night in tampa the reigning champs against the cowboys. That game by the way is going to be an absolute television ratings monster brady and the buccaneers against the cowboys on thursday night. Football to open up this It's a gain. That's going to be interesting for us and for the division by the way If you care. And i do not the nfc east one. Just one game in the preseason. They were one. Eleven and one overall a philadelphia had thai thirty one. Thirty one tie on the other night. Why the lone win in the division was washington's thrilling. Seventeen to thirteen win over the bengals A week ago A bengals team. Without joe borough playing for cincinnati On the show today on the show today. The second part of my conversation with santana moss. A lot of you reached out to tell me how much you enjoyed the first part from friday. Today you'll hear him for another thirty minutes tell stories. Including one about sean taylor. He's also gonna shares thoughts on this year's team. How good of a season this team We'll have this year so that's coming up shortly a heads up for later in the week the i smell test of the year year. Sixteen for the smell test. Eleven winning seasons four losing seasons. I finished last year. I was looking at this the other day. Because i remembered that i really finished up strong in the playoffs. i was nine and four in the postseason last year. Four no four ndo on super bowl sunday. I gave out the bucks. I gave out the under in the game in the super bowl. I gave out the under in the first half and i gave out the bucks in the first half all four. Those hit i also went three and one conference championship weekend so it was a seven and one finish to last year And that locked up another winning season record wise. anyway. I'm very aware of the percentage Needed to actually win money But i ended up with a winning season and that is Eleven winning seasons four losing seasons in the fifteen years. I can't believe it's been fifteen years that i've been doing the smell test so the i smell test of the year.

"Told us that so case is going to give us an update tomorrow. At around 7 35 give us an update and assess the damage a little bit more, but the storm brought 150 mile per hour winds 24 inches of floodwater. Grand Isle, which is One of the southernmost points just south of New Orleans, pretty much at the mouth of the Mississippi River and the Gulf of Mexico. I mean, beautiful area beautiful fishing area, too. But all those homes are on stilts, and it was no time at all that they had six Ft of water. Underneath the houses on stilts. I like to call I thought, Wow, that'd be a neat place to live. And then you see a hurricane. You're like, Hmm. No, thanks. I'm not so sure that I want to be there. ABC says all the power went out New Orleans around 9 10 last night. Now we were talking about six ft of water in some areas of Grand Isle. But picture this some parts of Louisiana overnight experienced storm surges. Of 15 ft. Now some of the new infrastructure and levees that they built specifically in New Orleans. With the Army Corps of Engineers had the ability to push back and hold up to what is it 20 Ft of Storm Surge 20 FT almost double what it was. What 16 years ago with Katrina now, as Casey, our friend told us an hour ago, when you start to go towards the outskirts, either they didn't get enough funding from the government or they didn't upgrade him because they're not 20 ft. Tall to be able to withhold some of those storm surges. There were 22 barges. That were set loose. Uh, as far as we know this morning, we're still trying to figure out if those barges are still on the run in the Mississippi River, which, as you can imagine, you know, obviously, that's pretty dangerous. At least one death so far is what we know. But, you know power with obviously, with that being out there, saying it could be up to six days or longer before power. Gets back on, and I found this interesting cause. Remember whenever there's a major hurricane, you hear this being reported, and according to Time magazine, they claimed that the government uses Waffle House restaurants if you heard that before. They'll use Waffle House restaurants to gauge damage.

The other crop it's hurricane ida along with hurricane ida though we'll end it was some positive stuff but i Hurricane ida made landfall in southeast louisiana on sunday morning. On the sixteenth anniversary of hurricane katrina on august twenty ninth as a category four with maximum wind speeds of about one hundred and fifty miles per hour in reported six to eight foot storm surge throughout the area. The gulf coast were hit. Land the i Hit land right over homa louisiana shoutout lots of friends of heart factor in homa and it's tracking to continue inland between the i should go between new orleans and baton rouge. That's what it's looking at as time a taping and it's a category four so that means it has super strong winds like one hundred fifty up to one hundred fifty miles an hour as the time of taping at least five hundred thousand residents louisiana. I think maybe even more have are without power and ida is down to a category three and it's about thirty ish miles outside of neurons. Southwestern orleans isn't moving pretty quickly It's slowed down significantly when it hit land like like all hurricanes do but still continuing inland. So but there's tons of like so far like the the the videos keep getting and worse. There's lots of wind videos fucking with the boats. Tearing roofs off everything else. I just saw report in new orleans. There there's like some elderly people who are damaged building. So yeah there's gonna be some some some bad news. I'm sure know as you as you're waking up and listening to this and checking the latest But hopefully the damage isn't similar to katrina because ida is about one third of the size of katrina so good so even stronger winds at landfall. It's it's a. It's a much smaller hurricane. So hopefully it's really and it's going between norrland's in baton rouge hopefully hit everything head on right or the levees like. Oh we got the big motherfucker with katrina right unlikely to happen right. Th i think because it's a third of the size of the storm surge isn't what it is with the much larger storm like katrina was so so hopefully it's the same kind of flooding damage. Right wins definitely strong. So if they're in the direct path fuck off a lot of it is. You're talking about the time lapse of like doing the video on the in the parking garage because a lot of people like parking garages or whatever and When it was really bad the parking garage. Luckily hell on earth like you couldn't see it was so windy. And so the little slats the little tiny slabs of a parking garage. Look you would get fucking annoying.
