As temperatures slowly begin to "warm-up" across much of South Louisiana today and in the days ahead, there is a serious threat overhead. While you may begin to journey from the house you have been in for days, I want to be aware of the threat of falling icicles. As things begin to thaw out, the icicles hanging from your home or buildings will begin to give way and start to fall. Please avoid walking under areas that may have this serious threat hanging over you. Having an icicle stab you as it falls can not only be very painful, but very dangerous. So please, be aware of your surroundings today and keep an eye overhead.
