NEW ORLEANS, LA (WVUE) - For tourists roaming around the French Quarter Wednesday, it was a much different experience compared to the previous day.

"Warmer, dryer and a lot quieter," said Nick Faello, who traveled to the city from Punta Gorda, Fla. "I mean, first time to New Orleans. First Mardi Gras, of course, and it's really been fun."

Another Carnival season is now in the books. So, how did the city do?

While final numbers aren't in, it seems businesses may have taken a hit due to the rainy and cold conditions on Fat Tuesday.
