Summary
Jefferson Parish is shutting down all summer programs as Tropical Storm Arthur looms, prioritizing safety over schedules. Drainage crews are working nonstop to clear catch basins, fire departments are prepping boats and high-water vehicles, and DOT crews are setting up barricades in flood zones. Officials warn that rainfall speed and volume are the biggest concerns, with crews also bracing for downed trees. The emergency operations center will stay active 24/7, and residents are urged to stay flexible and alert as the parish readies itself for whatever comes next.
