City of Monroe offices will close today at 1:30 p.m. due to the forecasted inclement weather. The National Weather Service in Shreveport has issued a hazardous weather outlook for all of north Louisiana beginning this afternoon through late this evening.
 
All severe thunderstorm hazards are possible, including golf-ball-size hail, damaging wind gusts of 25 mph, periods of heavy rainfall that could bring flooding, and isolated tornadoes.
 
The NWS predicts the heaviest rain in the Ouachita Parish area will begin around 3:00 p.m. Tuesday.
 
It's important to have a severe weather plan for your family; know where to take shelter during a tornado warning. And if you must travel in inclement weather, do not drive through flooded areas -remember turn around, don't drown.
 
City of Monroe offices will reopen Wednesday, November 30th.
