Cold weather is officially getting serious in Louisiana 🧊

The governor has declared a state of emergency as freezing temps and potential icy conditions move in this weekend. That helps crews prep roads, respond faster, and keep folks safe if things turn slick, especially on bridges and back roads.

If you don’t have to be out, this is your sign to stay put. If you do, slow it down and plan ahead. South Louisiana + ice is a combo we just don’t practice enough!

Cold nights, rain chances, and classic Louisiana weather mood swings 👀🌦️

If you’re heading to a parade, farmers market, or outdoor plans this weekend, you’ll want layers because temps drop into the 30s at night with rain chances late week into Saturday. Sunday looks calmer, but it’s definitely a “check before you go” kind of weekend.
