NEW ORLEANS – Hurricane Francine barreled into the Louisiana coast Wednesday with destructive 100 mph winds and a dangerous storm surge, knocking out power to hundreds of thousands of electrical customers and pummeling the region with several inches of rain, prompting flash flooding emergencies.
The eye of Francine moved onshore at 5 p.m. CT in Terrebonne Parish, bringing hurricane-force winds inland into the southern region of the state near Baton Rouge. (FOX Weather)
