Morning Forecast – Wednesday, Oct. 30th
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chase Ward reports mild fall weather with some clouds and scattered showers near the Texas–Louisiana border. Temperatures are in the 60s and 70s, with a high of 87 expected later. A chance of thunderstorms arises this afternoon, particularly around 4 to 5 PM. On Halloween morning, a cold front may bring gusty winds and isolated severe weather, but the overall threat remains low. Rain should clear by evening, allowing for relatively dry trick-or-treating. The weekend forecast shows slightly drier conditions, with ongoing mild temperatures and minimal rain chances into next week.
A light southerly breeze has kept temperatures trending warmer and higher dewpoints. Temperatures are mostly mild, and we expect to see some daytime clouds today. There will be a chance to see some patchy showers and thunderstorms later this afternoon and evening. A cold front will arrive by Halloween where a line of t-storms will develop. Strong thunderstorms will be possible with gusty winds being the main threat. An isolated embedded tornado cannot be ruled out. These storms will exit by Halloween night. Rain looks to linger in the forecast for Friday and for next week. Temperatures still look to stay above average in the lower 80’s.

Renewable energy revenue amendment requires federal action | Louisiana
SUMMARY: Louisiana voters are considering a constitutional amendment directing federal funds from offshore wind projects to the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority. Over 960,000 votes have been cast. Concurrently, Louisiana’s U.S. House delegation is proposing legislation to allocate federal oil and gas revenues, along with wind farm revenues, to the state. However, if the bill isn’t signed by President Biden, the amendment would lose its effectiveness. The legislation ensures that closer states receive a larger share of revenue from offshore wind projects, while also adjusting Gulf oil and gas revenue allocations to favor state funding for conservation efforts.

Money Moment: Airlines now required to pay cash refunds
SUMMARY: On this morning’s Money Moment, Gregory Ricks and Associates discuss new regulations benefiting travelers. Airlines are now legally required to automatically refund passengers for canceled or significantly delayed flights without the need for passengers to request it.

Significant delays qualify as three hours domestically and six internationally. Additionally, if luggage is lost and not delivered within 12 hours, passengers will also receive refunds for bag fees. This change aims to enhance transparency and protect against hidden fees.
