Uragan Iota ojačao je u ponedeljak i prešao u petu, najvišu kategoriju, nekoliko sati pre nego će se svom snagom obrušiti na Srednju Ameriku. Honduras, Gvatemala i Nikaragva počeli su još prošle nedelje evakuaciju stanovnika,
Iotu sada prate vetrovi koji duvaju brzinom od 260 km/h i „opasan je za život“ ljudi u Srednjoj Americi, saopštio je Nacionalni centar za uragane (NHC) sa sedištem u Miamiju.
This is escalating quickly.

Uragan preti delovima Hondurasa i Nikaragve „kišnim bujicama“, „razornim vetrovima“ i „opasnim porastom nivoa mora“, upozoravaju američki meteorolozi.

Iota prolazi istim putem kao uragan Eta koji je pre nepune dve nedelje poharao Srednju Ameriku, ostavivši za sobom više od 200 poginulih i nestalih a stotine hiljada stanovnika bez krova nad glavom i veliku materijalnu štetu na infrastrukturi. U Eti je stradalo oko 2.5 miliona ljudi, pokazuju službene procene.

Novi uragan, još razorniji od prošlog koji je na kopno došao kao uragan 4. kategorije treba tokom večeri u ponedeljak ili tokom noći da stigne na granicu Hondurasa i Nikaragve, na karipskoj obali Srednje Amerike.

Iota se polagano premešta jačajući iznad toplih voda Karipskog mora. NHC predviđa „izuzetno snažan vetar, opasan plimni talas i obilne padavine“ u Srednjoj Americi kojoj je ovo 13. uragan ove godine.
Honduras, Gvatemala i Nikaragva, koji se još nisu oporavili od prošlog uragana ETE, počeli su prošle nedelje evakuaciju stanovnike,
Delivering 1,200 sandwiches, fruit and water to Urraco, Honduras before Category 5 Hurricane #Iota makes landfall! Many families evacuated from here, but others have been unable to leave. Water is still on the ground from Eta and Iota will bring torrential rain. #ChefsForHonduras pic.twitter.com/cE3yZXtDYm
