Yes cat 2 storms are powerful but this is no Laura or Rita. This storm is just adding onto the damage Laura already caused and even Laura didn’t do as much damage as expected. Unfortunate that it had to make landfall in the same place as Laura but that’s the price with near in the gulf

TheActualTruth God is the Creator of all that is “seen and unseen” Colossians 2, and allows storms across the globe ( called “weather “). But we are the ones who live on a planet that’s been corrupted by sin. That said, God tells in His word that He takes no pleasure in the blood of anyone, but that all might seek Him , though He is not far from us. He gave us free will to live where we chose to. I have worked in LA off and on since KATRINA and RITA. These storms will always be here. We fortunately can be prepared to our best, although it is a sad situation for many to whom my heart goes out. I worked LAURA and have already had a meeting with my company to head back to LA after things settle after DELTA. Respectfully yours
WoW .....that's amazing footage......you stay safe....you guys have a adventurous life......otherwise we wouldn't be able to see this. Thank you for sharing this story. 🌀⚡🌀⚡🌀⚡🌀⚡🌀
I watched the whole live stream, it was fantastic and you were so brave ...you were lucky to make it back to the ramp in time from the surge it came in so fast ! Amazing footage !!
How about you all stop putting CO2 in the atmosphere instead of praying. If the water temperatures are that high, hurricanes will form. It's basic physics. God can't do anything about that fact, as prayer doesn't help stop gravity if you deliberately drive your car over a cliff. So if you want to pray to alleviate humans from natural desasters like hurricanes and wildfires, pray for people to stop their consumerism and ressource wasting lifestyle.
Watched a good bit of the live coverage last night. You guys did a fantastic job. Thanks for the amazing look into what a storm is like, for those of us who are really interested in the power of Mother Nature.
Good advice for earthquake country too, because lowlands can be swampy, and then you get liquefaction, which just jiggles your house to death. Solid bedrock is always better. And of course, with earthquakes you sometimes get tsunamis, so....yep, high ground.
I'm a weather nerd. I follow & am fascinated, primarily, by tornadoes but living in AL I'm also interested in hurricanes. I want to compliment you on this video. I watch a lot of storm videos & yours is the clearest example of storm surge I've ever seen. You stayed put & thus gave the winds & surge context for your viewers. I think it could be used as an educational tool for kids & other storm virgins to illustrate how intense the winds can be even in a cat2 as well as how storm surge "works" & how fast it happens. Great job! Congrats & blessings
Very nicely shot the structure of the hurricane taking all the risks especially the center of the eye when it had stopped raining all of a sudden and then it was followed by the heavy rains along with the storm surge which was the .back of the hurricane . I read about it and through this video I practically saw it. Thanks guys for taking this wonderful video. Be careful and safe .
I sat in my garage approximately 20-25 minutes away in Lake Charles from this very spot and watched it rip through my neighborhood with no problem nor obstructions. I pray everyone made it through.....again!
Bet it's insane to be in the perfect path to experience the rainbands, eyewall, eye, eyewall again, and rainbands again. Interesting how winds blow one direction on one side of the wall then go the opposite direction on the other side. Feel bad for Louisiana being hit twice in 6 weeks apart from hurricanes. Hope everyone there has been safe.
i dont think they all went but more windows were blown out and sheets of plywood over previously broken windows ripped off as well. there was a group of storm chasers staying and filming there again.

Creole is where I was born Cameron is where I was partially raised its so so sad these storms my brothers and other family members were killed in 1957 hurricane Audrey before they had good radar and weather people.
I'm very thankful that people stay to record the storm, but if you can leave the path then do. Otherwise you will not have running water or electricity for some time.
Dry air is said to have driven the stronger winds in the upper part of the atmosphere down to surface level, even though said dry air and wind shear eroded the south half of Delta. Even hours after the storm had passed, the winds were still pretty strong, which is unusual. Yeah winds tend to be a little stiff after a hurricane passes, but these winds were more stiff than average hours after. The rain ended long before the winds finally died down.
Lousiana and the Gulf has been hit many times already this season by Hurricanes. I couldn't imagine living there every year knowing that hurricanes have been more frequent. I rather live in Alaska and deal with the Snow and the Cold instead.
Hi I’ve lived in Fairbanks and believe me blizzard are bad and -30 degrees can be deadly it’s a struggle to live there in the winter time. Cold weather breaks things. Be Bless.
Praying for all the families in the surrounding areas. This year has been a rough year for all. I hope all is safe! We’ve definitely had the 🌧 this year.
LA 27 was made with the spoil from a borrow ditch just West of the roadway. The ditch is fairly deep and many people have drowned there. Be careful....
I am so sorry my prayers go out to everyone that was affected. Where i am we got a lot of rain and wind but not as badly as this .the poor alligator was hanging on FOR dear life.
