Description
After severe storms swept through the state on Monday, Governor Jeff Landry and state officials said 16 parishes were impacted with 160,000 residents without power at the time of the storm.
"Unfortunately today marks the 11th severe weather event that GOHSEP (Governor's Office of Homeland Security & Emergency) has had to respond to for the citizens of the state," Landry said during a press conference Tuesday.
The storms slammed several southern states including Louisiana and Mississippi, but the metro New Orleans area was largely spared the worst as the storms seemed to weaken moving through the state.
