Where To Get Emergency Info During and After Barry
We are gearing up for a major weather event in Louisiana, and I would like to think that most of us in Acadiana are ready. But in case you need help with emergency services, we are letting you know that help is available in Louisiana.
Emergency.louisiana.gov has a wealth of critical information. Some of the resources you can access include:
- Road Closure information. 511LA.org, call 511 or 888-762-3511. Everything from incidents, construction, weather related shut downs, and even ferry information
- Proclamations. Official statements from our government officials, including Governor John Bel Edwards
- Shelter information for each parish
- State Office closure information
- Preparedness and Safety tips
- Emergency alerts through apps and social media
- Updates from the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center
- How to connect with FEMA and State Agencies
