Freeze Warning until 08:00AM Tuesday
Temperatures will drop into the lower 30s across the river parishes and areas northward. Areas along/north of the interstate corridor have already experienced two freezes this season and thus vegetation has mostly gone dormant for the season. In the warmer river parishes from Donaldsonville to Lake Pontchartrain and southward, freeze warnings are issued for every freeze. The National Weather Service in New Orleans has issued a Freeze Warning, which is in effect from 3 AM to 8 AM CST Tuesday.
