NOAA generally has good coverage of US Storms (of all sorts)

Here is the satelite: https://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/goes/floater.php?stormid=AL...

lots of maps and such updated frequently

"Unsurvivable Storm Surge" yikes. https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at3+shtml/031757.s...

"Maximum sustained winds are near 150 mph (240 km/h) with higher gusts. No significant change in strength is likely before landfall. Rapid weakening is expected after Laura moves inland."[1]

Wow. Apparently a category four is 130-156 mph sustained, and category 5 is anything over that.
