Afternoon storms are expected to move into the Lawtell area later today, so keep an eye on the sky as temperatures hold steady around 77 degrees. In local news, St. Landry Parish schools are facing significant budget challenges with approved closures and staff cuts, while authorities continue searching for an inmate who escaped jail in connection with an armed robbery. On a brighter note, gas prices are dropping ahead of the Fourth of July weekend, which should help ease holiday travel costs for the region.
