SUMMARY: Louisiana-based nonprofit Song of Survivors, founded by singer-songwriter David St Romain, offers workshops for veterans to share their experiences in the armed forces through storytelling and songwriting. The workshop lasts around six hours, with participants writing a song based on their stories. St Romain professionally records the songs and sends them to the veterans. The workshops provide a safe environment for veterans to express themselves and can be therapeutic. Spaces for the workshops are limited, and veterans can sign up on the SOS for Vets website. The organization aims to create a lasting legacy for veterans to share with future generations.

SUMMARY: n the last few hours, strong storms have been moving across Southwest and South Central Louisiana, bringing heavy rainfall, lightning, and gusty winds. As the storms move into Southeastern Louisiana and Mississippi, the environment is less conducive for them to maintain their strength. Despite this, the storms are still strong and may cause damage. There have been reports of 80+ mph winds and a possible tornado in the Lafayette area. A water spout was also seen over Lake Pontchartrain, but it seems to have dissipated as it moved on land. The severe weather is expected to continue for a few more hours before calming down overnight. WWL Weather will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as needed.
