NEW ORLEANS, La. (KLFY) As Hurricane Ida roared through New Orleans Sunday afternoon, heavy rains rushed into the city damaging multiple buildings and roadways, blowing the roof off a New Orleans Senior Center and unfortunately our sister station WGNO, at 1 Galleria Blvd, was not left unscathed.
A steady stream of rain poured throughout the newsroom causing significant damage.
There are no reports of any injuries.
As of 5 p.m. all of New Orleans was in the dark as Hurricane Ida beared down on the City.
According to Entergy New Orleans “catastrophic damage to (their) transmission system, caused the outage.
@EntergyNOLA has confirmed that New Orleans has no power. The only power in the city is coming from generators. #Ida pic.twitter.com/9clSeFcz3T
