Uragan Laura ojačao i pogodio SAD: Traju katastrofalne oluje i poplave, stanovništvo se evakuira

The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Terra satellite acquired a natural-color image (above) of Hurricane Laura on August 26, 2020, at 12:20 p.m. as the storm neared the coast. The storm will make landfall late in the evening on August 26, before marching up the Mississippi Valley. The category 4 storm is expected to unleash strong winds, heavy rains, and a potentially catastrophic storm surge on an area that has not taken a direct hit from a category 4 or 5 storm since the start of modern hurricane records.
