People and relatives carry the coffin of a relative killed after heavy rains brought on by Hurricane Ida, during the funeral for victims in the village of Verapaz, near San Salvador, November 9, 2009. Hurricane Ida roared through the Gulf of Mexico on Sunday, where important oil fields are located, after triggering floods and mudslides that killed 124 people in El Salvador. Ida was expected to weaken gradually on Monday as it heads toward some of the oil and gas production facilities in the central Gulf, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.
