Fast-Moving Hurricane Nate with 90 MPH Threatens Louisiana, Mississippi with Storm Surge, High Winds

Landfall for Hurricane Nate is expected about 11:00 p.m. At 4 PM CDT, Hurricane Nate is moving toward the north-northwest about 23 mph as a strong Category 1 hurricane with 90 mph winds, and is expected to pass over portions of Lower Plaquemine Parish in the next few hours. Hurricane Nate is then expected to make landfall tonight along the Mississippi Coast.

The main impacts across southeast Louisiana and southern
Mississippi will be damaging winds and storm surge flooding along
the immediate coast and tidal locations.

Potential impacts from the main wind event are now unfolding across
Mississippi coastal counties of Jackson, Harrison,
and Hancock as well as portions of extreme Southeast Louisiana
including much of Lower Plaquemines and Lower St. Bernard
Parishes.

Potential impacts from the main surge event are now unfolding across
the immediate Mississippi coast and across parts of
Southeast Louisiana east of the Mississippi River outside of the
hurricane risk reduction levee system including portions of
Plaquemines, St. Bernard, Orleans, and far Southeastern St. Tammany
Parishes.

Potential impacts from the main surge event are now unfolding across
