Hurricane Delta projected to strike Louisiana early Sat Oct 10
Created by Lee Hayes for Levees.org July 2016
Unbelievable. A Category 4 storm, with winds currently at 140 mph is headed toward the Louisiana coast.
Forecasters say Hurricane Delta could strengthen even more before it makes landfall. And will strike “as a major hurricane of at least at Category 3” early Saturday morning.
Just as dangerous as wind is the storm surge which will affect New Orleans.
