SUMMARY: Today’s weather features some fading showers tracked by WDSU’s Doppler radar, primarily in the River Parishes and near marshy areas. Rain chances are decreasing as a warm front approaches, with temperatures expected to reach up to 91°F this week. Tomorrow may see isolated showers, but overall conditions will improve with lower humidity heading into the weekend. Attention shifts to possible tropical development in the Yucatán Straits, with only a 20% chance of formation. Current forecasts suggest potential impacts may steer any system away from our region towards Florida or Mexico, but updates will continue.

Meteorologist Devon Lucie shows us the isolated showers that were out Wednesday evening, then steps us through the next couple of days letting you know where rain chances will go and how that will affect temperatures and what the humidity levels will do through the weekend, then takes a closer look at the extended forecast that’s connected to what might happen in the Western Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico next week, while finally focusing on the tropics with the low chance of possible development in the Western Caribbean the the Yucatan Channel and what type and strength of storm activity we’re tracking and what will drive the path of what will steer the system that will determine the impact it will have on Louisiana, then finally taking a look at the entire seven day forecast with high temperatures and rain chances through next Wednesday.
