Southeast Texas residents urged to report Edouard damage via state survey
Tropical Storm Edouard made landfall near the Texas-Louisiana border on September 1, 2026, causing widespread power outages, flooding, and structural damage across Southeast Texas. Authorities are urging residents to report damage through the State of Texas iSTAT survey to assist emergency officials. The storm weakened to a tropical depression by September 2, but heavy rain and flash flooding risks persist, particularly in areas like Livingston where waist-deep water trapped residents.
