Severe Thunderstorms Could Threaten Much of Louisiana By Mid-Week
Much of Acadiana should prepare for the potential threat of severe thunderstorms by mid-week.
Forecasts are calling for much of Louisiana to get strong thunderstorms by Wednesday afternoon, into the early Wednesday evening hours.
According to forecasts that I have seen, the biggest threat may be damaging winds and the slight risk of tornadoes embedded in storms as they push through the area.
