Nearly all of the hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses that suffered power outages in Louisiana due to Hurricane Francine had their lights turned back on by late Monday, though there were still a few outages in hard hit coastal areas.

Hurricane Francine will be most noted for the Flash Flood Emergency that garnered much attention. A man driving a pickup truck drove around barriers, noting high water in the City of New Orleans and had to be rescued live on WDSU News' wall-to-wall coverage by a "good Samaritan."
