I know there was a fire last night that involved a vehicle, but is this new or related to the fire from last night?

Looks to be more in the marsh areas.

There is also a fire along US 90 in Houma between the Bayou Blue and Houma exits.

HTV just posted something.

Not all bad. You can pick up a pie on the way at Lea’s on 71.

East bound on I10 should is good. If you have to go back to ellick this afternoon it might be a problem. Hopefully it opens back up by 2:30pm this afternoon

190 ftw. Doesn't look like much traffic right now.

Use Waze.


But in any case 190 to 49 really isn’t that much out of the way if you are going to Alexandria (only a couple of min and actually less miles).

Stuck on Whiskey Bay
It’s just another day

Pissing over the rail
My schedule now a fail

Fuel tank getting low
The heater a no-go

In front of Landry’s sign
It’s almost by design

So close now to Grosse Tete
I’ll be waiting hours yet

Almost tasting Poche’s links
But standing on the brink

Thank God I’ve got my Yeti
The beer makes life so pretty
