Tropical Cyclone Three information

Tropical Cyclone Three is expected to impact Louisiana today (Friday, June 18) and tomorrow (Saturday, June 19). It is expected to be a local event, and its primary impacts are expected to be outside the LA BOSCOC’s geography.

At this time, and to the best of the LA BOSCOC’s knowledge:

  • No emergency weather shelter has currently or is expected to be stood up by any state agency;

  • No emergency weather shelter has currently been stood up by any parish (we have no information about whether any might be planned);

  • None of the LA BOSCOC’s federally funded shelters, including St. Vincent de Paul of Baton Rouge and the Family Violence Program of St. Bernard, are planning to stand up any additional emergency shelter beds in response to this event.

If the LA BOSCOC receives any information about emergency weather shelter being stood up in the LA BOSCOC’s geography, we will send a follow-up email with further details.

Anyone experiencing unsheltered homelessness who is concerned about the upcoming weather event should be encouraged to contact their local Coordinated Entry Access Point to request services.
