It’s another classic summer day across Southeast Louisiana: hot, humid, and a good chance for scattered storms.
Much of the area is now under a Marginal Risk, or level 1, for severe weather this afternoon. The main impacts would be heavy rain and strong winds.
Highs will reach 92 to 95°, but it’ll feel more like the low 100s this afternoon. Stay hydrated and take breaks outdoors.
SCATTERED STORM CHANCES
We’ve got a 40% chance of scattered storms from late morning through early evening.
Timing: 11 AM – 7 PM
Impacts: Lightning, brief heavy rain, gusty winds
PATTERN CONTINUES
Expect more of the same into the weekend:
• Daily highs in the 90s
• Triple-digit feels-like temps
• Scattered afternoon storms
STAY WEATHER-AWARE
