Not as many reports of severe weather as Friday but still a rough start to summer. We had half of an inch to one inch hail in Lafayette, wind damage in Vermilion parish around the Mouton Cove area, and possibly wind damage in Baldwin. Storms produced frequent lightning, torrential rain, gusty winds, and hail. This picture was sent from South Lafayette of hail that came down around the Verot School Road and Pinhook area.
After the storms we had a beautiful sunset with orange and yellow hues in the sky. There was also a double rainbow and a Broussard couple captured the images.
Sunday should be much better with the best rain chances near the coast and drier air moving in as the front which triggered today’s storms move south. Through next week high pressure moves in and rain showers will be few and far between.
