Hurricane Delta Hits Louisiana

NFK Editors - October 11, 2020
Hurricane Delta hit the state of Louisiana on Friday night, leaving over half a million people
without electricity. Though Delta slowed down by the time it made landfall in Creole,
Louisiana, it still hit with 100 mile-per-hour (160 kilometer-per-hour) winds. Hurricane Delta
quickly weakened, but its effects were still serious. The strong winds took out trees and power
lines. Delta also dropped nearly 18 inches (46 centimeters) of rain in southwestern Louisiana
in just 12 hours, causing flooding and other damage.
