Becoming Almost Hot This Weekend

Short Term Forecast:  We have a very warm and muggy morning across the Capital City with partly to mostly cloudy skies.  Temperatures are in the upper 60s to lower 70s.

Get ready for another day just like yesterday as an area of low pressure and an upper-level low move northeast of Louisiana.  This will give us a mix of sun and clouds with a few spotty showers popping up with the daytime heating.  It will be very warm and humid with high temperatures in the mid 80s.

The clouds will stick around tonight, and that will make it mostly cloudy.  We will stay warm and muggy with low temperatures in the upper 60s.

Weekend Forecast:  Get ready for some almost hot temperatures this weekend.  I say almost hot because I reserve the term "hot" for when it is 90 or higher.  An area of high pressure will sit over the Deep South this weekend and that will provide us with plenty of sunshine.  It will become very humid, so we will have some clouds each day too.  Therefore, you can expect mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies each day.  Highs will be in the upper 80s and lows near 70 each night with mostly cloudy skies and some light fog.

Next Week Outlook:  I can officially say that we will be HOT next week.  Monday and Tuesday will have similar weather to the weekend - partly cloudy skies each day.  However, we will likely hit the 90 degree mark each day for high temperatures.  Each night will have partly cloudy skies with lows in the lower 70s.  That sure does feel like Summer!!

A weak cold front will move into Louisiana on Wednesday, but it will dissipate as it gets to Baton Rouge.  This will make is partly cloudy with a few showers and storms popping up.  However, not all of you will have the rain.  It will be very warm with highs in the upper 80s and lows in the upper 60s.

Another cold front is forecast to move into town on Thursday.  According to the forecast models, this one looks like it will hold together as it gets to Baton Rouge.  We will have partly to mostly cloudy skies with isolated showers and storms.  Highs will stay in the upper 80s and lows in the upper 60s.

Friday looks to dry out, but we do not cool down in the wake of the cold front.  It will be mostly sunny and still very warm with highs in the upper 80s and lows in the upper 60s.

Try to stay cool and have a nice weekend! -Dave

I think what you said was actually very reasonable.
However, consider this, what if you typed a catchier title?
I ain't suggesting your content isn't solid., however suppose you added a title that makes people desire more?
I mean "Becoming Almost Hot This Weekend" is a little plain.
You ought to look at Yahoo's front page and watch how they create post headlines to grab people to open the links. You might try adding a video or a pic or two to get readers excited about what you've got to
say. Just my opinion, it would make your posts a little livelier.

Major Snowstorm Headed To Northeast US Tomorrow

For all of my friends and family that live in the Northeast US...here is my latest analysis of the winter storm heading your way on Friday into Saturday: The same area of low pressure that brought the heavy rain and thunderstorms to Louisiana last night and this morning will be moving up the East Coast on Friday.  It will get much stronger and become a  Nor' Easter that will impact all the major cities from Philly to NYC to Boston as well as inland areas. Delmarva to NJ Coastal Areas :  Winter Storm Warning in effect from Friday AM until Saturday AM!  It looks like it will start out as a brief period of snow along the coast in the morning then change into a windy rain during the day.  Then go to a heavy snow late Friday into Saturday Morning.  Snow accumulations of 4-8" are possible.  Some minor ice accumulations are possible too. Winds will be sustained around 30+ mph and coastal erosion will be possible too. NE PA : Winter Storm Warning from 10 am Friday until 7 am Sat

The Unseasonably Cool Weather Continues

Short Term Forecast :  It is a very cold morning across the Capital City with clear skies and temperatures in the 30s.  A light freeze is expected!  I hope that you brought in your plants last night.  Take that jacket with you this morning. An area of high pressure remains over the Southeast U.S. today.  This will keep us sunny and with the northwest winds over us, we will stay cool.  High temperatures will be in the upper 50s. Another freeze is expected tonight for the Baton Rouge area.  We will be clear with calm winds and very good radiational cooling.  Low temperatures will fall into the upper 20s to lower 30s.  The NWS has issued a Freeze Warning for areas along and north of the I-10/12 corridor from 2 AM to 8 AM Wednesday Morning.  The freeze could last 2 to 6+ hours and that would be long enough to kill any vegetation.  Make sure you bring in your plants or at least cover them tonight!  Bundle up! Week Ahead :  The area of high pressure will stay put through

Today Is The 5th Anniversary of Hurricane Gustav

Early in the morning on September 1, 2008, Labor Day, Hurricane Gustav made landfall near Cocodrie, LA.  It was a strong category 2 hurricane with 110 mph winds.  At one point, right before Gustav made landfall over Western Cuba, winds were as high as 150 mph (Category 4).  It did weaken as it crossed Cuba, but did regain strength as it sat in the middle of the Gulf as it became a Category 3 storm with winds of 115 mph.  This storm became the worst one ever to impact Baton Rouge, LA.  Sustained winds around 70 mph with a 91 mph wind gust was reported at Baton Rouge Metro Airport, 108 and 117 mph wind gusts were reported in Houma, LA.  That caused significant damage and, at one point, the entire city of Baton Rouge was without power. Hurricane Gustav moved slowly inland and the eastern-edge of the eye wall moved along the Mississippi River into Baton Rouge.  It continued northward through West Feliciana & Pointe Coupee Parishes.  The worst damage was seen along this line.  Area
