## Resource

Torrential rains slammed the Greater Baton Rouge Area, triggering floods, road closures, and even a sinkhole—while crews raced to rescue stranded families and keep residents safe. Campers evacuated from Camp Marydale, a tree crushed a car on Highway 61, and in East Baton Rouge, police pulled five babies from a submerged vehicle. Though drainage held in Central City, water rose in Parkwood Terrace and other neighborhoods. Pointe Coupee and Tangipahoa Parishes also battled rising waters, with sandbags deployed across the region. Authorities warn: stay off roads and never drive through floodwater. The storm’s grip could linger for days. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
