SUMMARY: The Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) has made significant strides in protecting Louisiana’s coast, with 109 ongoing projects focused on hurricane protection, wetland restoration, and community resilience. The CPRA is advancing 16 hurricane protection projects, and wetland restoration dominates its workload, with 11 marsh creation projects underway. In 2023, the authority initiated 16 new construction projects, investing $3 billion. Notable completions include the Cypremort Point State Park and Freshwater Bayou Shoreline projects. The authority also began large-scale efforts like the LaBranche East Marsh Creation and Grand Isle Beach Restoration, with continued support from local and federal funding.

SUMMARY: Meteorologist Mia Montgomery reports a cool Thursday in San Antonio, with morning temperatures in the upper 30s and a light freeze in the Hill Country, marking the coldest morning since February. Sunny, dry conditions helped afternoon highs reach the low 70s. Temperatures will dip into the upper 50s by 8 p.m. and low to mid-50s by late evening. The coming days will remain chilly, with highs rebounding into the mid to upper 70s. A potential cold front may impact the area around Thanksgiving, but no rain is expected, and severe drought conditions persist.

After the coldest morning since February, low humidity, sunshine, and calm winds will help temperatures warm into the pleasant low 70s this afternoon. A gradual warming trend takes shape over the next several days as we monitor another front sometime around Thanksgiving. Here’s an update with Mia.
