Warmer Weather Returns This Week In Baton Rouge


Short Term Forecast:  It is a chilly morning across the Baton Rouge area with mostly clear skies and temperatures in the 40s.  Better grab that jacket as you head out the door.

We will have a beautiful afternoon thanks to high pressure sitting over the Southeast U.S.  Some high clouds will move across the city today, but that will only make it mostly sunny verses the totally sunny skies we had all weekend.  It will become a little warmer with high temperatures in the lower 70s. 

Expect a little chill still in the air tonight with mostly clear skies.  Low temperatures will be in the mid 40s.

Week Ahead:  The area of high pressure will remain over the Southeast U.S. on Tuesday through Thursday.  This means we will have very pleasant weather all week.  It will also stay warm with daily highs in the lower to mid 70s.  There will still be some chilly temperatures at night with lows in the upper 40s.

Thanksgiving Day:  It is going to be a fantastic day weather-wise!  We will be mostly sunny and warm with highs in the mid 70s and lows will be in the upper 40s.

Black Friday:  Any early morning deal shoppers you will want your jacket since the temperatures will be in the 40s, but it will warm up later in the day.  A cold front is forecast to move across Baton Rouge later in the day, but it will be dry.  Friday Night will be mostly clear and chilly with lows in the upper 40s.

Weekend Outlook:  In the wake of the cold front, we will have plenty of sunshine with cooler temperatures.  Expect mostly sunny skies on Saturday and Sunday with highs around 70 each day.  Low temperatures will be in the mid 40s each night.

Tropical Outlook:  All areas of the tropics are quiet and tropical cyclone formation is not expected through Tuesday.

Enjoy the wonderful weather and have a nice day! -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. ...
