Short Term Forecast: It is another very warm and humid morning across the Baton Rouge area. We have mostly cloudy skies with some patchy dense fog. There is a Dense Fog Advisory in effect until 10 AM for Ascension, Assumption, Livingston, St, James, and Southern Tangipahoa Parishes. Visibility could become less than 1/4 mile at times. Temperatures are in the lower 70s.
We will stay unseasonably warm and humid today as southerly winds continue to pump in the Gulf Moisture. A cold front will be slowly moving into Northern Louisiana today and that will help to set off isolated showers and thunderstorms with mostly cloudy skies around Baton Rouge this afternoon. High temperatures will be around 80.
The clouds will stick around along with scattered showers tonight as the cold front moves closer to the city. It will stay warm and humid with low temperatures in the upper 60s.
Friday Cold Front: The cold front will slowly move through Baton Rouge on Friday Morning. We will have scattered showers and a few rumbles of thunder throughout the day. Some heavy rain is possible along with a few strong storms producing gusty winds. High temperatures in the upper 60s will occur in the morning before the cold front moves through. Then they will fall into the mid 40s by the afternoon! Brrr!
Friday Night will be mostly cloudy and cold with scattered showers as the cold front stalls along the coast. Lows will be in the upper 30s.
Weekend Forecast: The cold front will remain stalled along the Louisiana Coast on Saturday. This will keep plenty of clouds and scattered showers over us. It will be a cold rain as high temperatures will only get to the mid 40s. Saturday Night will have more clouds and a few showers with lows in the lower 40s.
The cold front will retreat back to the north as a warm front on Sunday thanks to a trough of low pressure pulling it northward. This will temporarily warm us back up. We will see an increase in scattered showers and thunderstorms. There could be some stronger storms along the Coast. High temperatures will be in the lower 60s.
An area of low pressure and another cold front will move through on Sunday Night/Monday Morning. This will give us scattered showers all night. Low temperatures will fall to the upper 40s.
SWAC Championship: If you are headed to Houston to cheer on Southern University then plan for some rain and cold weather. Fortunately, the game is in Reliant Stadium so the weather will not be an issue. However, if you are tailgating it will be cloudy with scattered showers in the morning and temperatures in the upper 30s. At the 1 PM kickoff, it will still be cloudy with scattered showers and temperatures will only get to around 40, but indoor temperatures will be around 72°. Go Jags!!!!
Take your umbrella with you, enjoy the last day of warm weather and have a good day! -Dave
