Along with the weather forecast for wintry precipitation across south Louisiana, the weather-weeniest are also predicting record low temps. Between now and Thursday, we'll get down in the low teens. While this is not shocking for most of the nation, it will take many of us by surprise, mainly in the form of broken pipes. And dead car batteries.
The weather guys are forecasting that we will get 2-4 inches of snow, but that we are on the north of the snow line and that coastal south Louisiana will get more than us. One forecast I've seen today says that New Orleans will get 6-8 inches in blizzard-like conditions. That would be an unmitigated disaster. New Orleans has absolutely zero snow experience or equipment.
Belle and I are going to be okay. This is not our first rodeo. We'll simply stay home and eat soup until itis over. She and I, in pat lives, lived in the Frozen North. We know how to do this. We don't like the cold, which is why we live in sub-tropical Louisiana,
This will be over in a few days. They are predicting temps in the 60s by Sunday.
