Day - Clear Sky

Break from the cold this weekend, but more is coming in the longer term!

This weekend will start a little bit more pleasant, with warmer temperatures. However, Sunday will see quite a bit of rain over Louisiana. The cold air returns Monday with another large high pressure system east of the Rockies.

Current Conditions:
Sunny and chilly currently, with moderate winds from the N around 10-15 mph with gusts above 20 mph. Thankfully no rain or snow currently!

Short term forecast:
You will get a brief reprieve from the cold air tomorrow as the large high pressure center over the eastern US moves eastward and flow from the S bring warmer, gulf air into your region. Winds associated with this more mild weather will be relatively weak. The “nicer” weather will be short lived as this flow from the S brings moisture in the form of rain on Sunday afternoon and evening. The rain will be brief as flow from the N pushes the rain eastward. However, this flow from the N is associated with another strong polar front meaning the cold temperatures will be back. Can’t win ’em all we suppose…

Long term forecast:
Cold. Strong winds from the north. Cold. High pressure. Cold. Row fast to get to warmer weather. 🙂
