Morning Forecast – Tuesday, Oct. 15th
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chase Ward reports clear skies and calm winds across Louisiana, resulting in cooler temperatures in the 40s and 50s today. As the day progresses, temperatures are expected to warm into the lower 80s, remaining comfortable due to low dew points. No rain is anticipated, leading to dry conditions and burn bans in effect for South Arkansas and Union Parish. A high-pressure system will reinforce cooler air, bringing nighttime temperatures in the 40s. While two disturbances in the tropics warrant attention, short-term forecasts show no significant weather changes ahead, with fall-like temperatures expected throughout the week.
Temperatures have really cooled down this morning thanks to clear skies and calmer winds. Skies will stay clear as we warm back to lower 80’s this afternoon. A brief disturbance will move near the ArkLaTex today, but no rain is anticipated for our area as a surface low pressure remains to far west. High pressure will settle in behind it and reinforce the cooler and drier air by tomorrow. This cool down will last up until the weekend. Overall, we will stay dry over the weekend with little to no rain chances in the 6-10 day outlook into next week.

New Orleans Weather: Big temperature drop this week
SUMMARY: A warm evening in mid-October sees temperatures around 77ยฐF with a muggy feel due to high humidity. A cold front is approaching, which will bring a significant drop in temperatures starting Wednesday, shifting to cooler and drier air from the north. While tomorrow will be warm and humid, with highs in the mid-80s, Wednesday will see strong northerly winds and cooler temperatures in the 60s. Little rain is expected despite the frontal passage, and no significant tropical activity poses a threat to the Gulf. Overall, a brief cool down is ahead, with highs in the 60s later this week.
We look to continue the typically dry October with no rain in the forecast for at least the next 7 days, even as a cold front moves through Wednesday morning! Another warmer day Tuesday with afternoon highs running above normal in the mid and some upper 80s. Humidity has been a bit higher, but still comfortable.
A strong cold front will move through early Wednesday with a sharp drop in temperatures. Waking up, temps will be in the 60s and many may stay there through the day as colder air continues moving in. Winds will also increase immediately behind the front and remain breezy into the weekend. North winds will eventually become easterly, and some minor coastal flooding is possible later in the week.
Thursday and Friday look to be the chilliest mornings with 40s and 50s and daytime highs in the low then mid 70s. Gorgeous this weekend, with sunny skies, cooler temps, and low humidity. The coldest of the air will remain more to our north and the upper trough bringing the airmass south will almost immediately start lifting north. So gradually, daytime highs and morning lows will be increasing. But even by next Monday the high is only in the low 80s!
