Thanks for starting your day with Morning Headlines. Here's are some of today's top stories. Saturday night saw some heavy rains hang around for hours, and of course, many of the city's streets — and some of its buildings — flooded. We've got an explanation from the Sewerage & Water Board and talked to residents about their experience. Sunday was another big day for Carnival and we've got all your photos here, from the parading pups of Barkus in the French Quarter to King Arthur, Carrollton, Femme Fatale and Pygmalion Uptown. In Metairie, we have Atlas and MadHatters. In Abita Springs, the Krewe of Push Mow made its way through the streets. After almost three decades prosecuting thousands of cases against lawyers accused of misconduct, Chuck Plattsmier is retiring. Andrea Gallo and John Simerman have a look at Plattsmier and his tenure heading up the Office of Disciplinary Counsel.
