New Orleans bereitet sich auf Hurrikan vor

July 12, 2019 - Tropensturm Barry wandert Richtung New Orleans und droht sich zu einem Atlantik-Hurrikan zu entwickeln, der erste in dieser Saison. Barry wäre der jüngste in einer langen Serie von Stürmen, die diese Stadt bisher getroffen haben.

Barry could have winds of about 120km/h, just barely over the threshold for a hurricane, when it comes ashore, making it a Category 1 storm, forecasters said.

But it is expected to bring more than 0.5 metres of rain in potentially ruinous downpours that could go on for hours as the storm passes through the metropolitan area of nearly 1.3 million people and pushes slowly inland.

President Donald Trump on Thursday night declared a federal declaration of emergency for Louisiana, authorizing the Department of Homeland Security and Federal Emergency Management Agency to coordinate all disaster relief efforts.
