As Hurricane Ida grows in power, Oklahomans from all over are on their way to Louisiana to give a helping hand.

The National Hurricane Center predicts Hurricane Ida will be a Category four hurricane once it hits land.

So, first responders from all over Oklahoma have volunteered to help.

"We feel they're well trained" Grand River Dam Authority Justin Alberty said. "There's probably going to be some nerves, just because it is a storm."

Agencies from Craig County, Wagnor County and Pittsburg County sent out crews to assist.

Some Southern Oklahoma counties like Bryan and Coal county also sent crews.

"You're certainly excited going in.... there is always unknowns and surprises that may sneak up on you," Craig County Technical Rescue Task Force's Josh Lee said.

This morning 32 members of Oklahoma Task Force One also packed up and headed to Louisiana.

Task Force One Rescue Coordinator Terry Sivadon says the team feels 100% confident and prepared to help those impacted.

"We've trained for this," Sivadon said. "We've been to several hurricane deployments. We're going to get down there early, be in a safe place and make sure that we're safe when the storm hits."

Sivadon says crew members have valuable experience with storms after assisting with Hurricane Harvey.

Crew leaders say this is their way of living up to the Oklahoma standard, which is picking people back up when they need it most.

"Oklahomans known for their good folks and everybody who's always willing and able to help even without pay or if it's dangerous for those individuals," Lee said.

"I think there is an Oklahoma standard," Alberty said. "Oklahoma has dealt with some much weather wise and disaster wise over the years."

"Once the storm hits, we'll be able to help the citizens of Louisiana immediately," Sivadon said.

The Hurricane is expected to hit landfall late Sunday night.
