Spotlight on New Orleans SPOTLIGHT ON NEW ORLEANS WELCOME TO NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA New Orleans is a Louisiana city on the Mississippi River, near the Gulf of Mexico. Nicknamed the “Big Easy,” it’s known for its round- the-clock nightlife, vibrant live-music scene and spicy, singular cuisine reflecting its history as a melting pot of French, African and American cultures. Embodying its festive spirit is Mardi Gras, the late-winter carnival famed for raucous costumed parades and wild street parties.

Hurricanes pose a severe threat to the area, and the city is particularly at risk because of its low elevation; because it is surrounded by water from the north, east, and south; and because of Louisiana’s sinking coast. New Orleans experiences snowfall only on rare occasions. The last significant snowfall in New Orleans was on the morning of December 11, 2008. Average High/Low Temperatures Low / High December 47oF / 62oF July 76oF / 90oF Average Precipitation Rain 64 in. GEOGRAPHY The city is located in the Mississippi River Delta on the east and west banks of the Mississippi River and south of Lake Pontchartrain. The area along the river is characterized by ridges and hollows. New Orleans was originally settled on the natural levees or high ground, along the Mississippi River. After the Flood Control Act of 1965, the US Army Corps of Engineers built floodwalls and man-made levees around a much larger geographic footprint that included previous marshland and swamp.
