KATC StormTeam 3 Weather BLOG

We are on track this weekend for mild conditions…great weather for putting up all those outdoor holiday decorations!  A big storm system in the west is producing anywhere from 6 months to a year’s worth of precipitation across the southern California and Arizona deserts and plenty of heavy snow in the Southern Rockies to the plains states.  For us it will mean warmer than normal conditions across Acadiana until Sunday night when this system drags a cold front across the area late Sunday night.  Moisture and dynamics continue to look more and more limited so there should be a less than 20% chance of getting wet on Sunday and about a 40% chance of showers, maybe a storm late Sunday night.  Cool and dry conditions will return early next week only to moderate by mid-week with perhaps a better chance of rain and storms for the following weekend.  Have a great weekend!
