SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chase Ward reports a clear and pleasant Wednesday morning with temperatures in the mid-60s. The day will be sunny, ideal for outdoor plans, with warmer weather expected later but a jacket may be needed tonight as temperatures drop. A high-pressure system is dominating the region, keeping conditions quiet. As the week progresses, temperatures will rise into the upper 80s, and though rain chances are minimal now, a frontal boundary may bring some showers by the weekend. Tonight’s low will drop to the mid-50s, prompting a need for warmer attire. Overall, a comfortable day ahead with seasonal temperatures returning next week.

Clear and quiet conditions have settled in thanks to a cool and dry air mass that will creep in throughout the day. Temperatures will trend a tad cooler in the mid and lower 80’s. Due to the clear conditions, we will fall to the mid and lower 50’s so you may want the jacket late tonight and early tomorrow morning. An upper level low will move out of south Texas into the gulf. This will spark up showers and t-storms along the gulf coast and for parts of the ArkLaMiss. Rain chances will linger into Saturday but stay minimum and patchy. Next week, skies will clear with temperatures returning more seasonal.
