Uraganul Ida a distrus zeci de locuințe, a omorât oameni, a provocat tornade și inundații în nord-estul ţării. Primarul oraşului New York, Bill de Blasio, a declarat stare de urgență, miercuri seară, după ce au fost înregistrate precipitații record în urma uraganului Ida. Acesta a descris situația drept un „eveniment meteorologic istoric” și le-a cerut oamenilor să evite să iasă din case, din cauza condițiilor periculoase de pe drumuri, provocate de inundații.
Miercuri spre joi peste New York s-au abătut ploi torențiale, care au omorât şapte persoane în sudul Statelor Unite.
Pentru prima dată în istorie primarul De Blasio a fost nevoit să declare „urgenţă de inundaţii” pentru orașul New York.
Circulaţia pe aproape toate liniile de metrou din New York a fost suspendată miercuri seară, după ce rămăşiţele uraganului Ida au provocat ploi torenţiale şi au sporit riscul de alunecări de teren şi tornade, relatează CNN.
