Short Term Forecast: It is a mostly cloudy morning with isolated showers across Southeast Louisiana. We have very warm and muggy temperatures in the lower 70s.
You can expect another day today just like we had on Wednesday with scattered showers and thunderstorms. This is all thanks to some deep tropical moisture moving over Louisiana from the Caribbean and daytime heating. Some of the rain will be heavy at times and a few storms could be strong with gusty winds. Highs will be in the upper 80s.
We will be mostly cloudy with a few showers tonight. It will stay warm and muggy with lows in the lower 70s.
Some drier air aloft will move over Baton Rouge on Friday. This will limit the amount of rain/storms we will see, but I can't totally take them out of the forecast. Therefore, we will be partly cloudy with isolated to scattered showers and storms. It will be hot and humid with highs around 90. Friday Night will be partly cloudy and sticky with lows in the lower 70s.
Weekend Forecast: Some of that drier air aloft will stay over us on Saturday. That will give us the same type of forecast as I'm expecting on Friday - partly cloudy with isolated to scattered afternoon showers and storms. Highs will be in the upper 80s. Saturday Night will have some clouds and it will be muggy with lows in the lower 70s.
A cold front will move toward and into Baton Rouge on Sunday. This will give us a much better chance of showers and thunderstorms. A few storms could be strong with gusty winds and heavy rain. High temperatures will be in the mid to upper 80s and lows in the lower 70s with a few showers Sunday Night as the front moves toward the Coast.
Watching the Tropics: Barbara made landfall last night over Southern Mexico as a hurricane. It is falling apart today as the remnants drift into the Southwest Gulf of Mexico, or Bay of Campeche. Now many of you are wondering will the develop again?? Most of the forecast models are showing it meandering over the Bay of Campeche the next few days and not doing much. However, a few models are showing it moving into the Eastern Gulf later next week and heading toward Florida. Fortunately, a cold front will be moving over us on Sunday and it will be in the Northern Gulf early next week. This "could" possibly keep it away from Louisiana, but that is not 100% certain. At this point it is WAY too early to make a call as for if it will redevelop. Needless to say, I'll be watching it over the next few days.
Also, there is a new rule that the National Hurricane Center has put into effect concerning if a storm comes from the Pacific to the Atlantic Basin and vice-versa! It states that if it remains a tropical cyclone as it moves over Central America then it will KEEP the original name. Only if the tropical cyclone dissipates with just a tropical disturbance remaining, will the NHC give the system a new name - assuming it becomes a tropical cyclone once again in the new basin.
Stay tuned!
