Hot With A Few Showers and Storms Today

Short Term Forecast:  We have some partly to mostly cloudy skies with patchy fog on this Thursday
Morning.  Visibilities could quickly drop, so be careful!  It is warm and muggy with temperatures in the upper 60s.

A cold front will be sitting north of Louisiana today, and that puts Baton Rouge in a very warm and humid air mass.  This will give us partly cloudy skies with isolated showers and storms popping up this afternoon.  A few storms could produce some heavy rain.  Highs temperatures will be around 90.

The cold front will be drifting to the south tonight and that will allow for a few showers to linger.  Otherwise, it will be mostly cloudy and muggy with lows in the upper 60s.

That front will move through town on Friday.  It will give us partly cloudy skies along with a few showers and storms.  We will still be hot and humid with highs around 90.  The front will be along the coast by Friday
Night.  We will become mostly clear and less humid.  It will also be cooler with lows in the lower 60s.

Memorial Day Weekend:  An area of high pressure will build in behind the front and settle over the Southeast U.S. this weekend.  This will give us mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies each day Saturday through Monday.  We will be very warm, but not humid - actually comfortable - with highs in the upper 80s. Each night will be cool and pleasant with lows in the lower to mid 60s.

Keep that umbrella with you in case you run into a shower and have a great day!

Thank you for some other informative blog.

Definitely imagine that that you said. Your favourite reason appeared to be on the net
the simplest factor to take note of. I say to you, I certainly get
annoyed even as other people consider worries that they just don't understand about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as neatly as defined out the whole thing with no need side effect , other folks can take a signal. Will likely be again to get more. Thank you

I was recommended this web site by my cousin. I am not sure whether this post is written
by him as nobody else know such detailed about my difficulty.
You're incredible! Thanks!

Comparison between Hurricane Matthew's possible forecast track loop vs Hurricane Betsy's

Some of you have been calling to say that Matthew's forecast to do a loop in the Atlantic Ocean off the SE U.S. is the same as what Hurricane Betsy did back in 1965. Well...that is not true. Betsy formed on August 27, 1965 just off the Leeward Islands. It quickly became a tropical storm on the same day, and then became a hurricane on August 29.  It made a few loops in its track with one north of Puerto Rico and a second north of the Bahamas.  There is a strong area of high pressure that was preventing Betsy from moving to the north, and that is what caused it to loop.  After the second loop, it then moved SW across the Bahamas, then turned west to move over far South Florida and then into the Gulf.  It eventually turned to the NW and quickly tracked right to New Orleans where it made landfall as a major hurricane on September 9th. Hurricane Matthew formed in the Atlantic east of the Leeward Islands as a tropical storm on September 28. It quickly moved west into t...

The Great Flood of 1983

It was 30 years ago that the Baton Rouge area experienced what is likely the worst flood in its history!  On April 5-9, 1983 we were hit with 6 to 13 inches of rain from a slow-moving storm.  This rain quickly ran off into the Amite, Comite, Tickfaw and Tangipahoa River Basins.  Some of the highest rainfall totals were in the headwaters of the Amite River in the Felicianas and South Mississippi.  Also, there were some strong easterly winds which slowed down the water from draining into Lake Maurepas and Pontchartrain.  These were some of the reasons why the flooding occurred in Baton Rouge & Denham Springs.  The weather map to the right shows the weather for April 8, 1983. A stalled front over the Southeast U.S. lead to the heavy rain event and flooding. The rivers quickly rose and spilled out of their banks.  The rain didn't stop, so the water continued to rise and rise.  Rivers rose to what are still the record levels.  The Amite in D...

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 ...
