Mainly somewhere from the I-10/12 split and northward into Mississippi.

Should be a shite show nightmare driving those roads in the rain

Close the schools now. Not worth the risk.

Will somebody PLEASE think of the children?

It’s called rain. That happens from time to time

A marginal risk isn’t thread worthy.

What was last week storm thread about? Did anything major happen?

They've been talking about this marginal event for 3 days now.....

So it will be a rainy day. I'm all for severe weather awareness but the OT tends to overemphasize these things.

I agree and I started this thread sort of tongue in cheek...

however..for New Orleans

Not only rain, but rounds of heavy rain and downpours that may cause flooding. Overall rain totals for the three-day stretch could reach 4-8? area-wide. It is hard to say where the heaviest rain will fall, but the entire area is under the threat of flooding rain.

Bruce: Dry for now, a heavy rain set up is on the way for tomorrow through Thursday. High rain chances and heavy downpours will possibly cause some flooding. Rain totals over the next 3 days could be as high as 8" in some areas. Stay weather aware as we get into mid-week.
