Tropical Depression Nicholas could hamper recovery efforts in Louisiana as it threatens to unleash heavy rainfall in a state still staggering after the devastation of Hurricane Ida.
Parts of central and southern Louisiana could be saturated by between 5 and 10 inches of rain through Friday, National Hurricane Center forecasters predicted late Tuesday.
Nicholas, which made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane early Tuesday in Texas, is expected to stall in Louisiana where it will dissipate as it soaks vulnerable areas. As of Tuesday night, the system carried winds up to 35 mph coupled with higher gusts, NHC forecasters said.

A defiant Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is testifying before an investigative Georgia Senate Committee on Wednesday. The committee scrutinized her prosecution of President Donald Trump and multiple codefendants, at one point cutting Willis’ microphone briefly when she testified beyond the question she was asked.
