Here's a look at what it looked like when it came ashore near biloxi with maximum winds of 85 miles an hour. And here's the scene in downtown mobile. This part of the city, underwater. Over 100,000 people reported to be without power this morning. Nate now lashing everything in its path with powerful winds, heavy rain and concerns about possible tornadoes now as it marches north. Team coverage beginning right near in the studio with rob Marciano who is tracking the storm. You have that surge, four to six feet coming over highway 90 over biloxi, the fourth if you count MARIA, the fourth in the last 45 days, actually the eye coming right over Keesler air force base where the hurricane air force and squadron are based so they didn't have to go far. 100 miles south-southwest of Montgomery and the pass across the Tennessee valley and Ohio valley and gets up into the northeast by late tomorrow into Tuesday.
