La vida de los Cajun - Louisiana

FLASH DROUGHT RISK GROWING ☀🔥 If you're a gardener like me, expect your water bill to increase over the next few weeks! Hazardous heat is expected to expand across the Deep South over the next two weeks. The Climate Prediction Center has placed parts of the South, including portions of southeastern Louisiana and Mississippi, under a Rapid Onset Drought (ROD) risk. Extreme heat accelerates evapotranspiration, pulling moisture from plants and soil. With rainfall potentially running more than 2 inches below normal, soils will dry out quickly and drought development possible. Expect increasing stress on lawns, crops and vegetation, along with a potentially higher fire risk. Additional burn bans could be possible. Stay tuned...
