Lafayette Flood Warning

Storms moved into Acadiana and parked prompting a flood warning for Lafayette parish. Youngsville and Broussard got the heaviest rain today, the same areas that flooded yesterday so in the past couple of days at least 6 inches of rain fell in south Lafayette. Washington also got about 3 inches by radar rainfall estimates. Breaux Bridge and New Iberia also had torrential rain with rates about 3 inches per hour. All of this because of a boundry between humid and dry air pushing south. Sunday the front may stall just offshore putting us on the dry side of the boundary Monday. Rain chances look to go down for a couple of days before increasing.
