Temperatures Wednesday once again reached into the mid 70s with sunny skies. Cirrus clouds have been on the increase indicating a changing weather pattern. By tomorrow high pressure slides east and southerly winds kick in. That means more moisture for clouds to develop ahead of a warm front expected on Friday. Showers and a few storms will be possible through Friday, right now a 40% chance of getting wet. Things pick up Saturday as a strong upper level low dragging a Canadian cold front moves closer. The warm front will help push more moisture in the atmosphere so when the cold front arrives we could have some heavy rain. That looks to be the main threat at this time with a possible 2-4 inches of rain area wide. Minor flooding may be an issue before all is said and done Sunday morning. The Cajun Hot Sauce Festival, the Creole Festival, and a host of other events are scheduled this weekend. And although it won’t be a total wash-out, we’ll be dodging rain. Be sure to keep an eye on the radar before heading out. Cooler temperatures expected next week with plenty of sunshine.
