LSU used to be pretty reluctant to close


I ended up at the student health center getting stitches during Andrew because LSU wouldn't close no matter what.

Why would Slidell get "pounded" if the eye passes over the eastern side of BR at 80 Miles away?

Yep. We had finals during the 2008 snow storm, we were told to reach out to professors to figure it out.

There's a big tree leaning my way over the fence that I asked my neighbor if I could cut down he wouldn't let me. I offered to pay for everything but it's leaning straight towards my house from over the fence. Has me a little worried. Honestly don't want to deal with insurance either.

80 miles away? No. The tropical storm force winds hardly extend that far, if at all.

Sending now but editing to make it look better since I just copypasta from the site

The Advocate school closures
As Tropical Storm Francine continues on a path toward southeast Louisiana, more Baton Rouge-area schools are closing campuses or moving to virtual classes.

East Baton Rouge, East Feliciana, Livingston, Pointe Coupee, Tangipahoa, West Baton Rouge and West Feliciana parish public schools, as well as Zachary, have joined Ascension, Assumption, Iberville and St. James parishes, which announced plans Monday to close in response to the storm.

LSU announced it will shift to remote instruction Wednesday and Thursday. River Parish Community College and Southern University in Baton Rouge previously announced plans to close Wednesday and Thursday.

Catholic schools that are part of the Diocese of Baton Rouge follow the closure plans of the public school districts in the geographic parishes where they are located unless otherwise notified.

East Baton Rouge Parish public schools, the largest district in the Baton Rouge region, opted to stick with a normal school day Tuesday and continue with planned after-school activities. But it has warned parents that Tuesday afternoon school bus service may be slow.

"Due to the threat of Hurricane Francine, we expect heavy traffic and delays as families prepare for the hurricane's arrival," according to a message Tuesday to parents in East Baton Rouge Parish.

slidell was at 60-70% chance of tropical storm force winds with the 7am update. I can only imagine that's gone up with the eastern shift in the 10am update.

That track is almost right over Associated Grocers, Louisiana State Police, Amazon. I know AG has backup power for their warehouse and server room, but not sure about the others.

Straight through the middle of the "medical corridor" for Baton Rouge too. Track looks to go directly over OLOL and Baton Rouge General is only a mile east.

Your property line goes 300ft into the air. If a tree is hanging over into your property you can cut that portion down without asking anyone questions .
