Week of wild weather ends

Sunshine on Friday ended a week where temperatures dipped as low as 12 degrees; and freezing rain, sleet and snow fell on the area and lingered from Monday through Friday.
Eunice Mayor Scott Fontenot took time off on Friday from a plumbing issue at his house to remark Eunice has been lucky with a string of serious weather events in the past six to seven months.
The area was hit by hurricanes Laura in August and Delta in October.
Then it was the Lundi Gras storm of freezing rain, sleet and snow.
