Hurricane Laura Makes Landfall in Louisiana!

8/27/2020

 
Picture
Hurricane Laura made landfall this morning as a strong CAT 4 around 1:05 am CDT.  The surge was projected to be 21’ in areas and the highest reported was 11’; therefore, the surge impacts were greatly diminished.  The wind was as advertised in Lake Charles and Cameron Louisiana, with gusts reaching near 134 mph in Lake Charles before the instrument was damaged, so likely gusts up to 150 mph.   Laura has been downgraded to a tropical storm and still producing wind gusts in the 40’s and 50’s.  It will hit Little Rock later this afternoon and then move into the TN River Valley, through KY and exiting around Richmond back into the Atlantic.    

Claims have already started coming in and teams have been deployed. 

​Our prayers are with the people affected by the storm and we wish you a speedy recovery process.  

Leading Edge Prepares for Hurricane Laura!

8/26/2020

 
​Laura is now a major hurricane and will make landfall overnight tonight on the U.S. Gulf Coast.  Laura is now a CAT 4 storm; however, is expected to weaken slightly back to a CAT 3 just before landfall. Storm surge is expected to be significant and will spread along the coast far outside the National Hurricane Center’s cone of uncertainty.  Damaging winds are possible up to a few 100 miles inland with a more widespread threat of flash flooding. The precise landfall location (currently targeting the Texas/Louisiana border) is therefore not as important as the large areal extent of these expected impacts. 

Leading Edge has deployed resources for both desk and field assignments and wish the people of Louisiana and Texas our best.  Please stay safe!  Our adjusters and ready to take action immediately.
