Good Morning Sugahs, October 21, 2019

Good morning Sugahs. Get ready for severe weather today. Especially East of Lafayette. The Basin area, St. Martinville, New Iberia, Franklin, Morgan City will be hit hardest. Storms today could have embedded tornados. 90% chance for rain today, 80.

Jenn and I did not have a winner for the KTDY/Aire Serv of Lafayette Secret Sound at 7:20 AM. The amount is up to $495.00. Steve Wiley plays again at 12:20 AM. Also, at 9:20 AM we'll have a chance for you to pick up a pair of tickets to Cirque du Soleil Ovo in the Cajundome BEFORE they go on sale to the public.
