An Enhanced Risk for severe thunderstorms has been issued for tomorrow in Northeast Louisiana with a slight risk farther west across the remainder of North Louisiana into South Arkansas and Deep East Texas…that as the coldest weather of the season makes its way to Louisiana. We’re told damaging winds and isolated tornadoes will be the main threats from late tomorrow morning through the afternoon. Public Health Climatologist Barry Keim says high temperatures will be in the 70s on Sunday, but be prepared for a big change…

Cut 12 (10) “…so far.”

Keim says high temperatures statewide on Monday will only be in the 40s and morning lows will be several degrees below the freezing mark, especially anywhere north of the I-10-I-20 corridor for most of the week.

In the wake of the New Year’s Day Terrorist attack on Bourbon Street, French Quarter businesses are asking what can be done to prevent something like it from happening again.

Cut 1 (35) “…I’m Jeff Palermo.”

Governor Jeff Landry issued an executive order declaring a period of mourning for the victims of the Bourbon street Terror attack.  The order calls for all flags over state buildings to be flown at half-staff from Monday, January sixth to Friday, the 17^th.  That’s a day each to honor and remember each of the 14 victims who died.
