Tomorrow morning when the storm hits I’ll be near Lafayette, LA and wondering if I should tough it out and run through the tropical storm. Thanks.

Yep, watch for flying debris, trust the process.
Must fly kite while you run.
Video will be needed.
I would try t o stay in the eye....less windy
Be sure and wear your rubbers.
I would stay inside when the rain starts getting heavy, but before the wind and rain pick up, you'll probably be alright. Be careful and view weather advisories before you start. Have a plan in case things get bad while you are out. Looks like thing will get dicey between 6 and 7 tomorrow am and abate in the early afternoon.
Never miss a work out, no matter what.

Be safe, wear a helmet.
If you are a stringbean, like Yomif Kejelcha, go ahead and run, as the wind will not be a factor for you. Please strap a camera to your torso, as it will make great YouTube video when a flying sheet of roofing tin or siding chops you in half. Wear a pillow on your rear end, in case one of those twisters, which are offshoots of such huge storms, comes a-swirling your way. Soft landing, and all...
Unless dangerous, for sure you should run. Take full advantage of the dew point being at least 12 degrees lower than normal. And ideally, you'd get someone to drive about 10 miles away and run a point to point 10 with the wind to your back. You could pull off HMP and work on that turnover for a full.
Not much wind so go for it.
A few years back I ran during a cat 2 hurricane (typhoon) while in Guam. What an adventure!!
Into the gusts I was barely advancing! When the wind was behind me, I was running 4:40 mile pace like it was an easy run.
It was a bucket list thing...and my wife called me a moron.
I did a 10 mile out & back at night during Superstorm Sandy. The out was insane; I was running into the wind and getting pelted with hail. The back was most outstanding. It was the fastest I ever ran up to that point in my life and it felt incredibly easy. My friends in the local running community understood but thought I was out of my mind for doing it.

I already said that in my post above, sonny.
Helmet, rubbers, protection..what dont you git?
If Jim Cantore can stand out there, you should do it, maybe photobomb him.
Tropical storm = glorified rain storm
Go for it.
We've gone this far and no ones dragged Trump and his posture on global warming into this?

It’s tough to say. If it’s not dangerous and it’s just a lot rain—then that’s probably fine as long as it’s not flooding where you’ll be running.
If there is flooding and/ or significant wind, then it’s not safe. Best run on a treadmill—which sucks but is better than risking life and limb in dangerous conditions.
