Hurricane Laura roared ashore in Louisana on Wednesday night. It brought storm surge, very strong winds, and rains that caused flash flooding.

The storm hit the coast with winds of 240 km/h, making it a category four hurricane. A category 5 hurricane is when winds reach 252 km/h.

When the sun came up on Thursday morning, the damage was catastrophic.
