Delta made landfall near the town of Creole in Cameron Parish early Friday evening as a Category 2 hurricane, packing sustained winds of 160 km per hour. Gerard Meschwitz, 62, returned to Lake Charles yesterday morning after evacuating to Houston for the storm. He found that Delta had torn up more of his roof, which was already damaged by Laura.
His neighbour, who evacuated to Moss Bluff ahead of the storm, came back on Saturday to grab essentials before leaving again because her power was also out.
