Sandbagging efforts continue at Ike Hamilton Expo Center in West Monroe and at Monroe Public Works on Grammont Street in Monroe.
Entergy reports over 1700 customers without power early Thursday morning. Officials urge extreme caution when dealing with downed trees and power lines, especially near flood waters.
