Ida reportedly caused at least 27 deaths there and four people are still missing.<\/p>\n<p>The president is expected to tour Manville, N.J., and Queens on Tuesday to witness Ida&#x27;s damage and the various recovery efforts.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most powerful hurricanes ever to hit the U.S., Ida bashed Louisiana in the earlier part of the week before heading north and causing devastation across multiple states.<\/p>\n<p>Nearly 530,000 Louisianans were still without power as of Monday morning, according to PowerOutage.us, a tracking site.<\/p>\n<p>New York Gov. Kathy Hochul estimated that Ida caused more than $50 million worth of damage to the state.<\/p>\n<p>Biden&#x27;s move will allow aid to be freed up to the counties of Bronx, Kings, Queens, Richmond and Westchester, the White House said.
