St. Landry Parish is dealing with some significant challenges today, including a family rebuilding after devastating flooding and school closures and staff cuts approved to address budget shortfalls. On a brighter note, Marksville is celebrating the state's oldest Fourth of July parade today with rapper Paul Wall as a headliner, marking America's 250th anniversary. The weather looks pleasant for festivities with partly cloudy skies and a high around 75°F.
