Edouard’s center crossed the Louisiana coast near Johnson Bayou at about 19:20 UTC on 1 September [E1]. Maximum sustained winds were about 60 mph at landfall [E1]. The official intensity fixes the event as a tropical-storm landfall [E1].
Later bulletins placed the center inland northwest of Port Arthur [E2]. Edouard remained a small tropical cyclone, with its strongest winds held close to the center [E2]. Its narrow footprint concentrated the coastal hit around the Louisiana–Texas line [E1][E2].
The hurricane watch was discontinued by the later advisory [E2]. The storm-surge warning was also discontinued [E2]. Those changes narrowed the coastal emergency as tropical-storm conditions and rainfall continued inland [E2].
Rain became the central inland hazard as Edouard moved away from the coast [E2]. The forecast kept flash flooding at the center of the threat [E2]. The compact circulation kept the wind hazard local [E2]. Heavy rain followed the center inland [E2].
Johnson Bayou marked the crossing point, and Port Arthur marked the storm’s immediate inland progress [E1][E2]. The sequence covered a small piece of coast and a short span of time [E1][E2]. That scale made precision matter: 60 mph, tropical storm, landfall near Johnson Bayou [E1].
The cited official notices carried no refinery shut-in figure by the 23:59 UTC cutoff [E1][E2]. They supported no defensible claim about lost refining capacity or barrels offline [E1][E2]. Any larger industrial headline would have outrun the public evidence.
By the cutoff, Edouard was inland and the hurricane watch and storm-surge warning were gone [E2]. The landfall record remained exact: near Johnson Bayou, about 19:20 UTC, with winds near 60 mph [E1]. Edouard came ashore as a tropical storm; the flood threat crossed the coast with it [E1][E2].
