YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Laura is moving inland across the southeastern United States as a Category 2 hurricane with an "unsurvivable storm surge" expected in some areas, according to the National Hurricane Center.

The storm made landfall near the Texas-Louisiana border early Thursday as a powerful Category 4 hurricane.

"Unsurvivable storm surge with large and destructive waves will cause catastrophic damage from Sea Rim State Park, Texas, to Intracoastal City, Louisiana, including Calcasieu and Sabine Lakes," the weather service said in a statement early Thursday. "This surge could penetrate up to 30 miles inland from the immediate coastline. Only a few hours remain to protect life and property and all actions should be rushed to completion." []

On Wednesday, Paul Goodloe, Meteorologist for The Weather Channel spoke with Roland Martin about the dangerous storm and what we can expect from it.
