Two 300 year old live oak trees in New Orleans City Park had to be cut down this week. One ancient tree split and fell onto another during heavy rains on Monday. Neither tree could be saved. This happened in the oak grove along City Park Ave. 12/5/6 ⁦@WWLTV⁩

We all want to wash clothes, but please be conservative in creating wastewater since many of our lift stations are without power - just because you have power doesn’t mean that the lift station has power! We will continue to update you on this situation as we know more.
