UPDATE 11:45 a.m.: Road Closures Due to Flooding

Updated at 6:45 a.m. Friday. Officials warn that many of the same roads closed Thursday remain closed Friday. Ouachita Parish Sheriff's Office urges motorists to use extreme caution, since water may be present in new areas not flooded previously. Also, for areas that flooded previously, damage to the road surface may have occurred. Bridges have been damaged and, in some cases, collapsed.
