Monroe Dispatch - No Struggle, No Progress

Louisiana has seen its fair share of severe and unusual weather in 2022 and looks like the year is not done presenting its unusual weather patterns. Just a week ago many parts of Louisiana received scattered thunderstorms and late summer tornadoes; now many meteorologists are anticipating the coldest Christmas we've seen in years. Freezing temperatures are expected over the Christmas holiday weekend for the majority of the state along with much of the United States. Although no heavy precipitation is expected experts are warning that families should take proper precautions to ensure pipes don't freeze as temperatures will drop down below 20 degrees. Warmer weather is anticipated on Sunday, the day after Christmas. Stay warm everyone!
