The National Weather Service in Lake Charles reported a wind gust of 67 mph in downtown Orange along with the strong straight winds. The storm blew a number of empty tanker barges in the Sabine River from their moorings on Levingston Island, causing them to run into the city's Riverfront Pavilion and Boardwalk. The U.S. Coast Guard was investigating Tuesday and working with the shipyard that was berthing the barges.
