The City of New Orleans today announced that it will activate the Citywide Freeze Plan (CFP) overnight on Sunday, Dec. 14 in anticipation of cold weather.
The National Weather Service (NWS) predicts "feels like" temperatures at or below freezing during overnight hours. This projected range is within the CFP activation threshold of below 35 degrees Fahrenheit (inclusive of wind chill) for over four hours. There are no watches or warnings anticipated with this event.
The New Orleans Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness (NOHSEP) is coordinating closely with NWS and will update residents via NOLA Ready if the likelihood of local impacts from winter weather increases. A Hard Freeze is not expected in New Orleans at this time, but residents should be prepared to protect people, pets and plants from the cold.
