Summary
Tropical Storm Arthur is slamming East Baton Rouge with historic flooding, streets submerged and more rain on the way—officials warn the worst may still be ahead. Drainage crews are racing to clear systems, but aging infrastructure can’t handle the deluge. Locals like Michael Montgomery, who’s seen worse than 2016’s flood, are bracing at home with sandbags. Leaders are urging everyone to stay put, avoid travel, and get essentials now—safety first. Sandbags are available; patience and preparation are your best defenses.
