Hurricanes often get stronger at night due to cooling of cloud tops, with Ida moving so slowly and being over marshy areas that are already inundated with warm ocean water, I wouldn't be surprised if it's strengthening a bit and that's why we are seeing this sudden uptick in catastrophe after nightfall.

From what I'm hearing and reading, it sounds like Katrina v2.0 is starting to unfold in NOLA.

we've known for most of the day that it was slowed to a crawl and moving into a position to dump untold volumes of rain on top of NOLA, so it's not been looking good, but the loss of all power except backup to pumps has upgraded the situation to extremely bad

Yeah, at one point the rain forecast for NOLA was 14-20 inches in addition to whatever storm surge came in. The levees in the small towns surrounding NOLA are already failing, and all that water is going to slam right into NOLA at the bottom of the loving bowl.
