TIME CHANGE: North Bay & St. Paul’s Carnival Assoc. parades to roll early

SOUTH MISSISSIPPI, MS (WLOX) - Because of the threat of rain, a second coast Mardi Gras parade will roll early today. The D’Iberville St. Martin North Bay parade will now start at 12:30pm, an hour earlier than previously scheduled. That means the streets will start closing to traffic at 11:30am.

Earlier today, the St. Paul’s Carnival Association announced their plans to move up the time of their parade in Pass Christian. That parade will start at noon, and the streets around the parade route close to traffic at 10am.
