WATCH: Webcams in Texas, Louisiana offer views of Laura

Laura, which was upgraded Wednesday to a Category 4 hurricane, is expected to make landfall near the southwestern border of Louisiana and the southeastern border of Texas sometime late Wednesday or early Thursday.

Hundreds of thousands of residents have been asked to evacuate their homes, as forecasters expect a storm surge of up to 20 feet, which they consider “unsurvivable.”

The webcams listed below are just a few that may have a view of the changing weather conditions ahead of, and during, the storm.
