of the storm, a semi-stationary weather front across southern Georgia and northern Florida drew moist air from the hurricane, causing heavy rains over central and northern Florida; the maximum rainfall total in the state was as recorded in St. Leo. The storm's trajectory on June 11 suggested a possible track towards the Mexican coast between Tampico and the Mexico–United States border. Swells ahead of the storm flooded roads in low-lying areas of Brazos Island and cut off the beach at Playa Miramar. Buildings were boarded up in the Rio Grande Valley in preparation for the hurricane. In Tampico, hospitals, police, and the Red Cross prepared for the storm. Bus fleets were readied for potential evacuations. High winds ultimately reached the coast of Tamaulipas on June 13 with little impact. Northeast storm warnings were issued for the U.S. Gulf Coast between Pensacola, Florida, and Morgan City, Louisiana, on June 15. Hurricane warnings were later issued on June 16 for the Louisiana coast between Grand Isle and Vermilion Bay. These warnings were disseminated via radiophone, telegraph, and telephone. A cutter from the United States Coast Guard was sent to alert ships of the storm's approach at Mobile Bay. The hurricane moved ashore Louisiana at on June 16, passing over Jeanerette, west of Morgan City. Along the coast, shrimp-drying platforms and oil derricks incurred $105,000 in damage. However, the hurricane's small size reduced the resulting storm surge, leading to maximum storm tide heights of between Grand Isle and Vermilion Bay. The storm's most destructive effects were associated with squalls that swept across Louisiana and Mississippi in advance of the storm's landfall. These localized storms felled trees throughout New Orleans. Winds in Morgan City reached as the hurricane made landfall. There, homes lost their roofs and chimneys. A rainfall maximum of was recorded in Lafayette. Six people were killed in Louisiana and the property damage toll reached $2.605 million. The American Red Cross estimated that 75–150 homes were destroyed and that another 3,000–7,000 were damaged. An additional $1.5 million damage toll was inflicted upon crops, including corn and cotton. Corn and cotton crops recovered soon after the hurricane's passage. Squalls associated with the hurricane killed four people and injuring many others in Mississippi. Gusty winds destroyed and unroofed homes in Natchez. The storms produced heavy rainfall across western parts of the state, elevating the Pearl River above flood stage by between Monticello and Jackson.
