Hurricane Ida roared closer to the Louisiana coastline Sunday, a Category 4 storm driving winds of 150 mph that could grow stronger before slamming onto shore later in the day.

“Life threatening storm surge, potentially catastrophic wind damage and flooding rainfall will impact portions of the Northern Gulf Coast,” the National  Weather Service warned.

Ida was centered about 50 miles southwest of the Mississippi River’s mouth early Sunday, rolling to the northwest at 15 mph. A Category 5 hurricane, top of the scale, has sustained winds of 157 miles per hour. Ida could reach that mark before landfall.
