Acadiana Forecast Calls for Another Wet Week
It is shaping up to be deja vu all over again. You might recall a couple of weeks ago when several locations in South Louisiana were inundated with extremely heavy rainfall. Rainfall amounts of six, seven, even ten inches or more were common across many parts of the region as a result of those thunderstorms. To make matters worse, even more, rain fell on the saturated ground in the days following that deluge. We could be setting up for a similar storm track situation this week.

Some of us have not emerged from quarantine mode in months, so seeking safe outdoor adventures is a welcome distraction as the temperatures are getting warmer.
So, it s a perfect time to celebrate the beauty of America during National Park Week. Every April, the National Park Service encourages citizens to explore amazing places and discover stories of history and culture at one of our officially designated parks across the nation. There are many state parks, local parks, trails, museums, and historic sites to choose from, and they will celebrate America s beautiful outdoors this year on April 17-25.
