The recent hurricane delta has disrupted lives in Louisiana. The continuous flow of hurricanes in the space of six weeks left parts of Louisiana blanketed Sunday with tarpaulins, mangled metal and downed power lines. Lifesaving crews spread out across the battered southwestern part of the state to recover electricity in the plight of Hurricane Delta, and citizens began returning home along roads lined with debris and houses missing roofs. Some were agreeable that the damage was not as bad as it could have been. A 70-year-old woman in Iberia Parish lost her lives in a fire likely caused by a natural gas leak following damage from Hurricane Delta, the Louisiana Department of Health said Sunday.

Louisiana officials also condemned the death of an 86-year-old man on the hurricane. The St. Martin Parish resident died in a fire that exploded after he refueled a generator in a shed, Gov. John Bel Edwards said. He said it didn’t appear the generator had cooled down before the man refilled it. A third storm-related death was reported in Florida, where a 19-year-old tourist from Illinois drowned after getting caught in a rip current caused by the storm off Destin, authorities said.

Roughly 350,000 customers in Louisiana remained without power two days after Delta blew ashore near the town of Creole with winds of 100 mph (155 kph), banging a part of the state still recovering from Hurricane Laura’s 150 mph (241 kph) onslaught on Aug. 27. Laura was blamed for 32 deaths, many of them caused in the storm’s aftermath by carbon monoxide poisoning from generators. The remnants of Delta, meanwhile, drained heavy rain on parts of Georgia, the Carolinas and Virginia.
