Hold onto your hats, folks, because Tropical Storm Edouard decided to crash the party in southwest Louisiana! Apparently, Edouard, who sounds less like a destructive weather event and more like a charming but slightly clumsy maƮtre d' making a grand entrance, rolled ashore on a Tuesday afternoon with a rather assertive 60mph gust. We imagine the conversation went something like this: 'Bonjour, Louisiana! Edouard has arrived, and he brought a *slight* breeze and a *touch* of moisture. Do mind the potted plants, won't you?'
This video captures the dramatic welcome of a storm that probably just wanted to see what all the fuss was about down on the bayou. It wasn't quite a full-blown, table-flipping hurricane, but it was certainly more than a gentle whisper, leaving folks wondering if Edouard just needed a really, *really* strong hair dryer to sort out his fringe. Get ready to witness the epic saga of a storm that came, saw, and probably rearranged a few garden gnomes with a very determined flourish!
