Rain chances return
SUMMARY: Weather updates indicate a pleasant start to the day with a colorful sunrise, but much of Louisiana is under burn bans due to dry conditions, being about an inch and a half below average rainfall for October. Despite a 20% chance of isolated showers this afternoon, significant rain is expected over the next few days, particularly Thursday, with potential coastal showers and thunderstorms. While Halloween evening may see scattered showers, it won’t be a total washout. Temperatures will remain above average, with a breezy day ahead. Upcoming events include the time change this weekend and Election Day next Tuesday.
We have a chance to see a stray shower this afternoon. Highs will be in the mid 80s. We’ll see a better chance for showers and storms Thursday.

State energy department unable to cover cost of orphaned oil and gas wells | Louisiana
SUMMARY: A recent Louisiana Legislative Auditor report reveals challenges in managing orphaned oil and gas wells, with their numbers up 68% since 2013. Two audits show that the state‘s financial security for remediation is inadequate, needing $542.9 million, while regulations for operators did not mandate financial security until 2015. Between 2020 and 2023, 976 orphaned wells were plugged, increasing efforts but only slightly reducing their overall number. The state faces financial risk due to insufficient oversight and funding limitations, and the Conservation Office has yet to adjust fee structures since 2004. The audit recommends multiple improvements to address these issues.
