"Multiple homes also were uninhabitable due to air conditioning units being destroyed."

Not mentioned in the source and sounds a little weird. What is mentioned is that a hospital won't be able to reopen because they can't keep their equipment sterile without air conditioning. 93.136.94.63 (talk) 04:23, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi:

May I have the reference for this "A total of 32 fatalities occurred throughout the state with four of them coming from falling trees."? As far as I can have official references, there is only 27 death in Louisiana according to the Departement of HealT (https://ldh.la.gov/index.cfm/newsroom/detail/5761).

I'm making a draft about the Effects of Hurricane Laura in Louisiana. It needs some help; will anyone help me with it? Hurricanehuron33 (talk) 18:18, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sure I’ll help and soon I might make a draft about the Effects of Hurricane Delta in the Yucatán Peninsula. Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 17:44, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Robloxsupersuperhappyface: it will likely be a lot worse in Louisiana; I'd recommend a draft for that. --67.85.37.186 (talk) 16:23, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I was just gonna say that lol Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 17:38, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Since Marco became the third hurricane of the season before Laura did, can I insert a few words in this sentence for a sequential hurricane formation but in parenthesis?

The twelfth named storm, fourth hurricane, and first major hurricane of the record-breaking 2020 Atlantic hurricane season -->
The twelfth named storm, fourth hurricane (Marco was third), and first major hurricane of the record-breaking 2020 Atlantic hurricane season

It's going to be a minor edit for that. --Allen ^{(talk / ctrb)} 21:37, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
