More Baton Rouge-area news inside
with Kelly P. Kissel | Metro editorHurricane Nicholas' rains will be with us into Thursday, falling on already saturated ground. Keep an eye out today for flash flooding. Here's a report our team of reporters put together. New data from state highway officials show that Baton Rouge is suffering through another bout of heavy traffic after a major hurricane. Will Sentell looks at traffic counts from before Ida and afterward. And Louisiana native Hayley Arceneaux is due to travel into space on a rocket this evening, if the weather holds and the countdown isn't interrupted. She's already had an incredible journey. Thanks for checking in today. Stay dry today, if it can be helped. |
