Hot & Humid With Daily PM Showers/Storms

A hot and humid weather pattern is in play across the area this week. Temps will manage upper 80s to lower 90s for highs each day. Moisture will be streaming in on an southeasterly wind flow. This will fuel those afternoon showers and storms through most of the work week. Remnants of T.S. Danny will track to our east and…

More Rain & Storms This Week

Tropical moisture continues to linger over us and that will lead to periods of rain and storms this week. A frontal boundary will push into this tropical air mass and help kick off more rain and storms Tuesday. There will be times of heavy downpours along with frequent lighting and gusty winds. Some storms could be strong and possibly severe…

Tropical Downpours This Weekend

The dry air mass is on the way out and we’re setting up for a rather wet Father’s Day weekend. The tropical system in the southwestern gulf is taking shape and should become a tropical storm sometime Friday. It will take on the name Claudette. The system is expected to make landfall as a tropical storm along the Louisiana coast…

Heavy Rainfall Potential This Weekend

A drier air mass has moved into place and we get to enjoy lower humidity levels through Thursday. The dry air makes it feel more comfortable, especially during the early morning hours. Abundant sunshine really takes advantage of the dry air and temps respond with highs easily reaching the lower 90s Thursday afternoon. Enjoy the milder air while it last…

Mornings will start out fairly mild with mid 60s likely. Afternoon temps will still warm into the 90s but it won’t feel quite as…

Rainy Pattern Continues

Gulf moisture continues to stream directly into our area. It’s the fuel needed for the daily showers and storms. The daytime heating ignites the storms that can linger into the evening hours. The storms that do develop will be capable of heavy downpours, gusty winds, and frequent lightning strikes. This weather pattern sticks around through the remainder of the work…
