Hurricane Francine is expected to make landfall this evening along the coast of Louisiana. As of 7:00 am CDT, Francine was located 195 miles southwest of Morgan City, Louisiana, with maximum 1-minute sustained winds of 90 mph and a minimum central pressure of 976 mb, per the National Hurricane Center. The storm is moving northeast at 12 mph. The storm’s forecast track takes it between Baton Rouge and New Orleans followed by a northward turn through Mississippi. Francine still has a short window today to strengthen a bit more before southwesterly wind shear increases, likely limiting any significant intensification.
ALERT™ subscribers can download similar stochastic event (SSE) IDs for Francine from the Downloads tab of this posting on the ALERT website. Compatible with Touchstone® and Touchstone Re™, the SSEs were selected based on the event’s projected key meteorological parameters at landfall, in particular storm track, minimum central pressure, estimated winds, forward speed, and landfall angle. They were selected primarily for impacts in Louisiana and can also be used to broadly capture storm impacts in Mississippi.
The Verisk ALERT Team will provide an additional update on Francine Thursday morning, EDT, including additional guidance on similar stochastic events, with additional plans to follow depending on the storm’s eventual impacts.
