Fewer Showers Near-Term…More Storms This Weekend

leave a comment

Sure enough showers and heavy thunderstorms fired up along the left-over boundary from last night’s convection. Storms weren’t nearly as active as they were last night, but they did manage to produce torrential downpours, gusty winds and some small hail. Check out the video that Nick Simoneaux (Nick-Simoneaux-Rayne Video) shot just south of Rayne as the storms lumbered through the area. Tomorrow and Friday should bring us lower rain chances with partly to at times mostly cloudy skies. Computer models are starting to get more aggressive with the rain chances this weekend and it does appear that there will be a better chance of scattered showers and storms Saturday and a fairly good chance of strong, perhaps severe storms with a cold front by Sunday. Hopefully most of Festival International will be okay, but this weekend will not be anything like the last three that we have enjoyed.
