We are experiencing some street flooding inside the City of Thibodaux and anticipate more throughout the remainder of the afternoon. Below is a list of roadways currently blocked due to impassable conditions. The street closure list will be updated as further closures take place.

During a fire on Christmas Day, two St. John Firefighters, Firefighter Chris Winkler and Firefighter Bobby Rodrigue, were injured and transported to University Medical Center in New Orleans. On Monday, December 26, 2022, Firefighter Chris Winkler was released from the hospital and is now at home with his family. On Thursday, December 29, 2022, Firefighter Bobby Rodrigue was released from the hospital and the St. John Volunteer Fire Department escorted their brother home to his family.

The fire was brought under control within 45 minutes but the house was significantly damaged as a result of the fire. None of the residents were harmed.
