Edouard made landfall at 2:20 p.m. CDT near Johnson Bayou, Louisiana, with 60 mph winds and then moved inland.
Heavy rain remains the main threat, with bands sweeping across eastern Texas and southwest Louisiana, including Houston, raising flood risks near the coast and farther inland.
Wind gusts reached 71 mph near the Texas-Louisiana border, 52 mph at Calcasieu Pass and 46 mph in Cameron, while water levels ran 1 to 2 feet above normal tides in southwestern Louisiana.
Edouard became the fifth named storm of the 2026 Atlantic season Monday evening after first being designated a tropical depression earlier that day.
The storm is the third short-lived Gulf system this season, following Arthur in June and Bertha in July, underscoring flood and wind risks even in a quieter hurricane year.
