BATON ROUGE - Louisiana's Governor, LDH Secretary and GOHSEP Director took to social media Sunday evening to give safety tips before Monday's solar eclipse.

GOHSEP Director Jacques Thibodeaux reminded Louisianians to always have a plan — especially on travel days. 

"Make sure that your car is fully gassed up, make sure that your cell phone is charged and make sure you stay in touch with loved ones," Thibodeaux said.
