I grew up in Beauregard parish. Even when hurricanes make landfall on that end of the state (it's on the Texas border), Beauregard really doesn't need emergency declarations. It's too far inland for storm surge, too elevated for much flooding -- never took much wind damage, either. At best, hurricanes take out some power lines, and if we're really lucky, school gets called off for a day.
I don't thin Beauregard even got much rain from Katrina.
