In the first of what will likely be a number of rained-out events today and tomorrow in the Baton Rouge area, organizers of Live After Five say this evening’s concert has been canceled. Press 1 For English had been scheduled to take the stage. The downtown concert series is slated to resume next Friday with the R&B/soul group One More Time Band onstage. With two to four inches of rain expected to fall over the area between tonight and Saturday—and as many as six inches possible in isolated areas—a flash food watch has been issued by the National Weather Service for East Baton Rouge and surrounding parishes through Saturday night. The forecast is now calling for an 80% chance of rain Saturday. Nonetheless, as of press time, tonight’s LSU baseball game versus Vanderbilt is still a go. The first pitch is scheduled for 7 p.m. It’s the Tigers’ final home series of the season, with games scheduled tonight, Saturday at 7 p.m. and Sunday at 1 p.m. The Tigers’ final home game will be Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. versus Nicholls State University.
