The Quiet Weather Continues This Weekend In Baton Rouge


Short Term Forecast:  This Friday Morning is starting off with mostly clear skies and some chilly temperatures in the lower 40s.  You will want that jacket again today.

It is going to be another beautiful afternoon across the Baton Rouge area as high pressure remains to our north.  This will make it mostly sunny with a few high clouds streaming over the city.  It will become a tad warmer with highs in the upper 60s.

Another chilly night is on tap with clear skies and low temperatures in the lower 40s. 

Weekend Forecast:  The area of high pressure moves to the northeast of Louisiana, and a weak disturbance moves over the state from the west.  However, our weather will remain quiet.  You will notice a few more clouds popping up Saturday and Sunday with no rain.  Each day will be mostly sunny to partly cloudy with highs in the upper 60s to around 70.  Each night will be mostly clear and still a little chilly with lows in the mid to upper 40s.

Next Week Outlook:  Another disturbance will move through on Monday and Tuesday.  This will have a little more moisture to work with, so we will have more clouds and a few showers are possible on Tuesday.  High temperatures will be warmer as they climb into the lower 70s, and lows will be in the upper 40s.

The disturbance will be well to the east of Louisiana on Wednesday and another area of high pressure will settle over the Deep South.  This will make it sunny, but we will not cool down.  Rather we will become warmer with highs in the lower 70s.  Wednesday Night will be clear and chilly with lows in the upper 40s.

Thanksgiving Day is going to be a fantastic one weather-wise.  It will be sunny and mild with highs in the lower 70s and lows in the upper 40s.

More pleasant weather is expected for Black Friday.  We will be sunny and it will still be mild with highs in the lower 70s and lows in the upper 40s.

Tropical Outlook:  Everything remains quiet in the tropics and tropical cyclone formation is not expected through the weekend.

Enjoy the nice weather and have a great weekend! -Dave

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 ...

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...

Flash Flood Watch now until Thursday Evening for WBRZ Viewing Area

The NWS in Slidell, LA has issued a  Flash Flood Watch for all of the WBRZ Viewing Area starting now and continuing until Thursday Evening. Rain has been falling for the last few hours and we have already picked up over 1.30" in Baton Rouge.  This is WAY more than the forecast models were predicting for this time.  The area of low pressure continues to develop over South Texas and a warm front will move up from the Gulf of Mexico by Wednesday Morning.  This will spread widespread rain and a few thunderstorms over Southern Louisiana all night and into Wednesday.  Then it looks like we will taper off the rain to just scattered showers during the day on Wednesday. On Wednesday Night, a cold front will move out of Texas into Louisiana.  As this happens, a squall line of thunderstorms is expected to move ahead of it and through Baton Rouge on Thursday Morning.  Some of these storms could be strong to severe with damaging winds and a few tornadoes. ...
