                              <p>New Orleans spent most of the day under a hurricane warning that was lifted around 7 p.m. CT. While the worst of the storm was to the east, heavy rain fell in the city, and nearby Lake Pontchartrain was under a storm surge warning.</p>
                              
                              <p>Earlier, Mayor Mitch Landrieu told residents to wrap up what they were doing and move to a safe place.</p>
                              
                              <p>"We're in the fight now. The storm is on us," Landrieu told his city of some 400,000 people -- 440,000 when you count the tourists this weekend.</p>
                              
                              <p>The mayor told them to keep an eye on the latest developments, but to remember that a Category 1 hurricane is still very powerful. </p>
                              
                              <p>"It's gonna to hit you hard, it's gonna to hit you fast," Landrieu said. </p>
                              
                              <p>Landrieu said he visited the city's drainage pumps facilities and was pleased with the conditions.</p>
                              
                              <p>After Nate made landfall, New Orleans was under a tropical storm warning and the mayor lifted a citywide curfew. </p>
                              
                              <p>Nate once was almost as fast as an Olympic sprinter, but began to lose speed as it made contact with the Gulf Coast.</p>
                              
                              <p>Hurricane warnings were in effect from Grand Isle, Louisiana, east to the Alabama-Florida border. Storm surge warnings included the coast from Grand Isle to the Okaloosa/Walton county line in Florida and the northern and western shores of Lake Pontchartrain.</p>

                              <p>Evacuation orders were in place outside levees in New Orleans and Plaquemines Parish, and along the Mississippi, Alabama and Florida coasts. President Trump on Friday declared an emergency in Louisiana ahead of Nate and ordered federal assistance.</p>
                              
                              <p><h3>Strong winds expected</h3></p>
                              
                              <p>The storm's reach will be wide, CNN meteorologist Chad Myers said, with strong winds affecting population centers from New Orleans to Panama City, Florida. Biloxi could experience gusts of 100 mph.</p>
                              
                              <p>Nate was expected to knock down power lines and trees from Lake Charles, Louisiana, to the Florida Panhandle and possibly leave at least 1 million people without electricity. </p>
                              
                              <p>"Preparations to protect life and property should be rushed to completion in these areas, as tropical storm conditions will first arrive in the warning area this afternoon," the hurricane center warned Saturday morning.</p>
                              
                              <p>Nate could drop 3 to 6 inches of rain, with 10 inches possible in some areas, from the central Gulf Coast north across the Deep South, the eastern Tennessee Valley and the southern Appalachians through Monday, the hurricane center said. Flash flooding is a danger.</p>
                              
                              <p><h3>New Orleans preparations</h3></p>
                              
                              <p>Nate is the third hurricane to hit the US mainland in six weeks, after <a href="http://money.cnn.com/2017/09/15/news/economy/irma-harvey-damage-who-pays/index.html" target="_blank">Hurricanes Harvey and Irma </a>killed dozens of people and destroyed thousands of properties.</p>
                              
                              <p>The storm has already carved a path of devastation in Central America. At least 28 people were killed Thursday in Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Honduras. Hundreds were rescued from floodwaters and mudslides. Many lost power and running water.</p>

He also had declared a state of emergency. At least 1,800 workers were on standby to reconnect power, if needed, he said.</p>
                              
                              <p>First responders, sewer workers and residents also prepared for flooding, mindful of summer rains that <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/09/us/new-orleans-flood-fallout/index.html" target="_blank">exposed deficiencies in the city's unique drainage pumping system</a>. </p>
                              
                              <p>Of the city's 120 main drainage pumps, three major and eight smaller ones were offline Friday night, <a href="https://www.swbno.org/documents/alerts/alert_78.pdf" target="_blank">city records show</a>. Also, all 24 major pump stations had backup generators, records show, as only three of five turbines that help power the city's oldest, most powerful pumps were available for service, a city water utility spokeswoman told CNN.</p>
