SUMMARY: Good Wednesday morning! Meteorologist Sarah Spivey reports some spotty showers in San Antonio, with today’s rain chance at only 20-30%.

Although there will be a slight chance for afternoon showers and storms, overall rainfall should be minimal. An upper-level low influencing the previous weather is moving out, allowing drier air to move in. This weekend, mornings will feel cooler, with Sunday lows in the 60s, offering a taste of fall. However, afternoons will remain warm, with highs still in the 90s. Enjoy your Wednesday!

SUMMARY: A tropical wave near Africa is emerging over the Atlantic but remains disorganized. The National Hurricane Center gives it a 60% chance to develop into a depression or tropical storm, possibly becoming Gabrielle. This system may move northward, staying over the open Atlantic and away from the Gulf, posing no immediate threat. Since the last named storm in late August, stable air, dry conditions, and increased wind shear have suppressed tropical activity in the Atlantic. The next storm names are Gabrielle, Humberto, and Imelda, with only the current wave showing potential for development at this time.

Meteorologist Alexandra Cranford tracks a lone disturbance with a chance of development on Saturday night, September 13, 2025.

SUMMARY: The Ouachita Parish Police Jury is conducting a series of community meetings to gather public input for their comprehensive plan guiding future growth. Police Jury members, including Larry Bratton from District D, emphasize the importance of reflecting residents’ voices in the master plan. Community members participated in interactive stations, allocating resources to priorities like infrastructure and downtown development, to help shape goals for the next 2, 5, and 20 years. Landscape architect Matt Pizatella and partners from Atlas support the effort.
