What's making news in New Orleans
| By Chad Calder | Staff writer 'THAT WAS FOR THE CITY': Robbed of a home opener against a worthy opponent — and exiled to Jacksonville, no less — The New Orleans Saints took it to the Green Bay Packers in Jameis Winston's first game as the team's starting quarterback. You'll find all our coverage here. Back at home, the team's 38-3 rout of Aaron Rogers and the Packers provided storm-weary residents with something to cheer about. BACK TO SCHOOL: Metro New Orleans school buildings took varying degrees of damage from Hurricane Ida, and we've got a look at which schools will be the first to reopened now that power has been restored to much of the area. REFUGE IN WORSHIP: This weekend, many in the metro area returned to church services, and we spoke to some of those who did so at Divine Worship in Kenner. ONE TO WATCH: Tropical Storm Nicholas formed in the Gulf of Mexico on Sunday, and while the area will likely be spared a hit, the storm could bring some heavy rains to the Louisiana coast later this week. Thanks for starting your day with us here on the Front Page. CC |
