Best Answer

The moist climate of the Gulf Coast provides ample rain to the southern part of the state, but weather patterns do not uniformly affect both the eastern and western portions of the state. New Orleans, in the extreme southeast, receives about 63.5 inches of precipitation yearly, whereas Shreveport (in the northwest, closer to Dallas than to New Orleans) receives about 51.3 inches, most of this as frontal storms from the west.

Are Louisiana's swampy waterways called bogs or bayous?

They are called bayous. Bogs typically get all of their water from rain and are created by sphagnum moss buildup over existing ponds or dry land that becomes saturated with rain - they are stagnant, peat-filled depressions. Bayous (like in Louisiana) are marshy outlets or offshoots of lakes or rivers (i.e. they have very slow moving water that is fed from a larger water source).
