Hurricane Iota made landfall in Nicaragua as a Category 4 storm, as parts of Central America prepared for an onslaught of rains, winds and flooding.

Monday, November 16, 2020 11:09 PM EST

Iota made landfall in northeastern Nicaragua at 10:40 p.m. Eastern time on Monday with maximum wind speeds of near 155 miles per hour, according to the National Hurricane Center in Miami.

Central America is still reeling from Hurricane Eta, which struck less than two weeks ago and made landfall about 15 miles from where Iota did. Aid workers are still struggling to reach communities cut off by washed-out bridges, downed trees and flooded roads.
