SUMMARY: Iberville Parish residents voiced concerns over a new Mississippi River bridge discussed by DOTD at the State Capitol. Officials suggested the bridge might connect Plaquemine to near St. Gabriel to ease traffic in Baton Rouge. While DOTD project manager Joseph Brown emphasized improved commuting, residents like Laura Comeaux fear it would destroy Plaquemine Point, an old-growth forest with environmental certifications. Comeaux highlighted the forest’s value and solitude, urging its removal from the project list. Brown acknowledged their worries, stating that DOTD seeks community feedback to ensure a comprehensive project view.

SUMMARY: Thursday will see more clouds and better rain chances, potentially keeping temperatures in the 80s and avoiding a heat index of 108, which triggers a heat advisory. However, this relief is short-lived as rain chances diminish by Friday. Over the weekend and into next week, an upper High will build, causing temperatures to soar. For the latest updates, download the WWL app. I'm chief meteorologist Chris Franklin.
Better rain chances and more clouds could keep our temperatures down today, but it's short lived, says Chief Meteorologist Chris Franklin

SUMMARY: I'm David Owens with the Honey Hole Insider. It's hot out, so ensure you have sun protection, but the fish are still biting. For summertime bass fishing, start with topwater early, then switch to deep crankbaits. Using specialized equipment like a Revo winch with a Veritos winch rod optimizes your experience. Good crankbaits include the Berkeley Dredger and Berkeley Dime. Crappie fishing is fair to good in shallow flats due to low deep-water oxygen. Brim and catfishing are also productive. Visit Honey Hole for all your fishing gear needs this summer. Have a great day!
