Ida Mutual Aid Update Raymond Trusik 30 Aug 2021 19:47 UTC
Hello All,

Unfortunately, Ida has slowed to a 9 mph crawl through MS, and at 1:00 pm today was not even in the middle of MS yet.  This is delaying the official call for mutual aid as many coops have not been able to fully assess the damage yet.

See Ida's path here: https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at4+shtml/152146.shtml?cone#contents

As soon as FECA gets the call regarding where crews are needed, I will be reaching out to coops (mainly via email) to let you know.  Sorry for the delay.

Sincerely,

Ray Trusik
