For the second time in 43 days, a hurricane made landfall in Cameron Parish. Hurricane Delta roared ashore last night near Creole as a Category Two storm with 100-mile per hour winds. Laura made landfall as a Category Four storm about 13 miles to the west of Creole on August 27th.

Delta is now over Northeastern Louisiana. Heavy rains and Tropical Storm Force Winds continue near its path. Delta’s maximum sustained winds are still at 40 miles per hour as it moves north-northeast at 16 miles per hour.

Entergy Louisiana is reporting 318-thousand of its customers are without power. As of six AM, Cleco says 125-thousand of its customers are without power, with 55-thousand outages in Rapides and Iberia parishes.

With Delta making landfall last night in southwest Louisiana that means ten storms have made landfall in the United States, which is a new record. The old record of nine was set in 1916. Also, four of the storms made landfall in Louisiana, Marco, Cristobal, Laura, and Delta. That ties a record set in 2002.
