Port Allen reads its weather at roof level. Port Allen is the West Baton Rouge Parish seat, sitting on the Mississippi's west bank directly across from downtown Baton Rouge. Its riverfront, historic lock and West Baton Rouge Museum anchor a small city that has watched the capital's skyline from across the water for generations.

The debris is local too - the trees over Port Allen follow the capital region's calendar with a neighborhood accent, and the downspouts have to end somewhere the lot can actually accept. Port Allen lots sit on the same gumbo clay as the rest of the parish, so discharge is planned, not assumed.
