We are still on our way to higher humidity tomorrow and scattered daytime showers and storms beginning Friday and continuing into the weekend. An upper low that is in south Texas is expected to drift back to the north and carve out enough of a weakness in the atmosphere into next week. The bottom line: we should see scattered afternoon showers and storms staying in the forecast through next week.Â
The City of Lafayette and LUS are asking all of us to observe the Water Ordinance, and if we can hang on for a few more days, we should eventually get a good shot at getting some much needed moisture. Â
The tropics have quieted down post-Alberto, but we are watching a poorly organized tropical wave the Caribbean south of Hispaniola that will be heading toward the Gulf by late this weekend.  Some computer models do grab onto this feature so we’ll pay some attention to it.Â
