Tropical Depression Delta carved a trail of significant damage through Louisiana, leaving hundreds of thousands of people without power and drenching an area still recovering from the onslaught of Hurricane Laura.

The storm, now the weakest category in a class that includes hurricanes, dumped more than a foot of rain over central Louisiana, the Weather Prediction Center said Saturday, adding that heavy rainfall is expected across parts of the Southeast and central and southern Appalachians.
