Raw, 4K footage of intense Category 4 Hurricane Ida as it made landfall in Southwest Louisiana on August 27, 2020. We intercepted the eyewall and calm eye from the small town of Mathews, where we received wind gusts of over 120 mph, perhaps stronger. Many power lines and trees were snapped, and numerous buildings received significant damage.
