Short Term Forecast: We have a clear morning across the Capital City. It is a little cool with temperatures in the 50s. You may want that jacket as you head out the door.
Expect a gorgeous day all around the Baton Rouge area. An area of high pressure remains over us, and that will allow for plenty of sunny skies today. It will become warmer with highs in the mid 80s.
We'll have another comfortable night with mostly clear skies. It will still be a little cool with low temperatures in the upper 50s.
Week Ahead: The area of high pressure will move east of Louisiana on Wednesday, and that will allow for the winds to start pumping in more humid air from the Gulf. We will be partly cloudy, warm and humid with highs in the lower to mid 80s. Wednesday Night will have a few clouds with lows in the lower 60s.
A weak upper-level low will move from the Southwest U.S. into the Southeast U.S. on Thursday. It will be moving into some dry air aloft, but moist air at the surface. This is different from the low last week that had moisture aloft and at the surface. That means this upper-level low will not have as much moisture to work with, and we will only have a slight chance of seeing a shower pop-up. Otherwise, it will be partly cloudy, very warm and humid. Highs will be in the mid 80s. Thursday Night will be partly cloudy and muggy with lows in the mid 60s.
The low will move east of Louisiana on Friday, but we will still have some partly cloudy skies. It stays very warm and humid with highs in the mid 80s and lows in the mid 60s.
Weekend Outlook: Another ridge of high pressure will move over Louisiana this weekend. This will give us mostly sunny to partly cloudy skies each day. We will stay very warm, if not almost hot, Saturday and Sunday. Due to this, we could see a stray shower or storm pop-up in the afternoon with the heating of the day. This would be similar to what we would see in the Summer. Highs will be in the upper 80s and lows in the upper 60s.
Be sure to get out and enjoy the warm weather. Have a great day! -Dave
