SUMMARY: Meteorologist Pton Malone reports significant snowfall across the region, marking one of the most substantial winter storms in generations. Predictions indicate totals of 4-7 inches in the New Orleans Metro and up to 8 inches in areas like Hammond and Baton Rouge. The storm, which began overnight, will continue throughout the day, with heavy snow expected in intervals.

SUMMARY: A warm, moist airmass persists with daytime heating and upper-level disturbances causing patchy storms late afternoons and evenings. A front arriving tomorrow may bring more scattered showers and thunderstorms. Cooler temperatures might briefly dip to the lower 90s on Wednesday, but heat will return by the Fourth of July, reaching mid to upper 90s with heat indices in the mid triple digits late week. Rain chances decrease by July 4th due to strengthening ridging aloft. Elevated dew points in the 70s and prolonged dangerous heat increase heat stress risk, urging precautions like altering outdoor plans and recognizing heat illness symptoms.

Conditions have not changed much. A very warm and moist airmass still remains in place. Daytime heating, abundant moisture, and upper-level disturbances will allow for more patchy storms late afternoon into the evening hours. A front will approach tomorrow when more scattered showers and t-storms are possible. There is a brief opportunity for cooler temperatures to drop to the lower 90’s on Wednesday. Then, we are back to the mid and pushing upper 90’s by the end of the week on the 4th. Rain chance will subsidize by the 4th and over the weekend, but heat indices will push into the mid triple digits late week.

SUMMARY: A chance of scattered afternoon downpours continues today with hazy skies caused by Saharan dust lingering through Wednesday. Moisture from the remnants of Tropical Depression Barry in Mexico and Tropical Storm Filosy in the Pacific is feeding rain chances in Texas. Expect daily spotty showers and storms, mostly in the afternoons, with rain chances around 20-30% through Thursday. Temperatures will be warm but not extreme, ranging from low 90s to mid-90s by Independence Day. Thursday and the Fourth of July will be partly cloudy, humid, and have much lower chances of rain. No hail or flooding is expected this week.

SUMMARY: Scattered showers and thunderstorms occurred across Southeast Louisiana Monday but are now winding down. However, abundant moisture remains, fueling a 70% chance of more showers and storms Tuesday and Wednesday, especially near the coast, with rain chances dropping to 10% Thursday through Saturday. Tropical Storm Barry, currently lopsided due to strong upper-level winds, has strengthened to 45 mph winds and is moving northwest toward eastern Mexico, expected to make landfall soon and weaken over mountainous terrain. Meanwhile, a 20% chance exists for a new tropical or subtropical system to develop in the eastern Gulf or southeast coast within seven days.
