Hurricane Francine hit the Louisiana coast as a Category 2 storm, causing power outages and flooding. The storm made landfall in Terrebonne Parish, damaging the area and knocking out power for over 221,000 customers. New Orleans prepared for heavy rain and potential flooding, with Mayor Cantrell urging residents to stay inside. Francine was expected to weaken as it moved inland, bringing heavy rain and the threat of tornadoes to Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, and Georgia. The National Guard was mobilized to assist with the storm’s aftermath. Louisiana has a history of dealing with hurricanes, and residents were urged to stay safe during the storm. President Biden declared an emergency to provide federal aid, and Mississippi also declared a state of emergency.
