| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A strong cold front pushed through South Louisiana with strong showers and storms along the boundary. Wind gusts in these storms were commonly in the 45 to 55 MPH range as they moved from northwest to southeast. Damage was reported in South Central Louisiana as isolated wind gusts of 55 to 60 MPH occurred. The strong persistent north winds behind the front also caused low tides along the coast. |
| Event narrativeevent_narrative | A strong cold front moved across the coastal zones during the 20th with strong north winds remaining over the area for more than a day. These winds produced lower than normal tides all along the coast. The NOS tide gauges at Luke���s Landing recorded a water level of 2.3 feet below mean lower low water. Water slowly drained from the area canals and the low tide eventually moved up to the Tesoro Marine Terminal where a tide of 2.5 feet below mean lower low water was recorded with a difference of 2.7 below the predicted level at 1637Z on the 21st. |
