On 1150 am they said I-10 could be closed for most of the day, whatever that means. If y'all are leaving town, I'd avoid I-10, however the hell you do that.

190 all the way to Opelousas is the safest bet until 10 opens?

Damn 18 wheelers!

There seems to be a wreck involving these frickers on either I-10 or I-12 on a daily basis.
