Hurricane Audrey: The Deadly Storm of 1957 

In June 1957, Hurricane Audrey formed deep in the Gulf of Mexico in the Bay of Campeche, 460 miles south of Cameron Parish, Louisiana. It took direct aim at the small towns along this coast, moving due north for four days. The coastal communities of southwest Louisiana were poised to evacuate, but then something went horribly wrong, resulting in a massive death toll of over five hundred people--almost two hundred of them children--one of the worst natural disasters in Louisiana history.

The events surrounding 1957's Hurricane Audrey were so horrific that for over thirty years most of the survivors found it too painful to speak of their terrifying ordeal. Because of this, most of the world is unaware of Audrey's devastation.
