SUMMARY: consecutive weeks. The weather forecast for Thursday indicates that it will be lighter compared to the previous day, and this trend will continue into the weekend as a dry front moves through. The overall feeling will be more comfortable and fall-like as we move into next week. In terms of unemployment, there has been a slight change in the number of new claims, with 209,000 claims reported last week. However, this is still considered consistent with a healthy job market, as claims have remained below 210,000 for four consecutive weeks.

The low pressure that brought some measurable rainfall across the region yesterday as well as some gusty winds will continue to move downstream today. In the wake of the system, low level pressure field is breaking down allowing for winds to become lighter from west to east. Aloft, the parent wave will also continue downstream fairly rapidly in the active southwesterly flow aloft. In the wake of this feature, upper ridging will take shape through most of the short term period. Although the upper levels dry, there will remain a weak residual stationary front to our south. Also, low level pressure field is still cyclonic, so that in mind think it will be tough to rid the eastern tier of cloud cover quickly. West of I55, more insolation is anticipated so these areas are where the warmer temperatures will be found today with the coolest over the Mississippi Gulf Coast where low stratus may linger. Tonight, additional low stratus is likely to develop especially where we do clear and where we got just shy of 2.0″ of rain yesterday. Assuming there is some residual low level moisture/wet soils around, some radiational fog will develop as skies clear and winds go to near calm. At this juncture, think the best potential will be from McComb southward to Livingston and on south from there to Houma and points west. Added mostly patchy fog for now, but some locally dense fog cannot be ruled out in the more fog favored locations. Friday will start at least a brief warming trend again as upper heights/thicknesses continue to modestly increase. Temperatures out west may even approach 90 degrees along the Atchafalaya. Otherwise, sunny conditions should replace the cloud cover across the eastern tier for a bright end to the workweek.
