After a tire blew out on our chase vehicle, we made the decision to abandon our car and seek shelter behind a building during the eyewall of Hurricane Delta. We watched as the town was torn apart all around us.
Hurricane Delta made landfall in Southern Louisiana as a Category 2 storm on October 9, 2020 only six weeks after Hurricane Laura stuck almost the exact location.

That truck flipped over on I-10 with the Cherokee with the lightbar on it was me. Crazy storm!

The irony of getting a blown out tire next to a tire shop... Seriously though, incredible footage, thanks for what y'all do! It's the only way us mere mortals can experience the terrible power of these storms!

Thank you for both hurricane laura and this one. I rode both of them out in lake charles and hope no one ever has to experience being hit like we were. We will rebuild and he better than ever #swlastrong

I rode out both in Jennings but it didn’t hit us so bad but people I knew that lived closer to Lake Charles got a lot of damage and some couldn’t find their pets or they found them dead. Delta gave Jennings water that went to our knees but it went away quickly. Hate that people have to go through this

Y’a know it is breathtaking but for me when I first came back home after Laura just to spend the birthday with my friend I nearly broke down in tears coming off of I-10 y’a know? It’s strange how fast things can change, I was unsure of the fact that I might not move back but here I am, it’s still unsettling to see tarps on the roofs and slabs where some of the shops I knew were. But slowly and surely all of swla is rebuilding and coming back stronger than ever. Just remember while there is beauty in these storms the damage is unreal and heartbreaking for those it directly impacted, I’m glad these documentaries were filmed it’s something to hold onto in remembrance when so many have lost so much.

My heart breaks for those in this community. They have been hit hard. Just sad to see people lose their homes and sentimental possessions. Mother nature is both beautiful and cruel. Watching this makes you realize how unsafe you are in these storms. Our home is our shelter, our soft place to fall ...yet isn't. Pray for all those affected by this storm and others

they're also cheap to repair/replace after a hurricane, which is why they're so popular in the south and up the east coast.
