The well advertised winter storm moves in to the region with clouds picking up Sunday afternoon keeping high temperatures in the 40s. The very dry atmosphere moistened up through the day with rain building from west to east.
A winter storm will bring quite the snow event to our friends over North Louisiana later tonight but unfortunately for us, it will just be a cold, miserable rain.

We are in the calm before the storm so to speak. We can expect a couple of quiet days with mild and muggy conditions as we await our next big weather system set to move in on New Year’s Eve. As it’s still a few days out there is still some uncertainty in timing and strength.
Temperatures rebounded for the afternoon with highs in the upper 60s and even a few low 70s. The start of the week will remain mild with overnight lows close to long term averages in the low to middle 40s both sides of the lake.

Slowly our weather will improve on this Sunday as the remaining rain and sprinkles dry up but unfortunately, the clouds look to hang tough for much of the day today.

After a cold start this morning, temperatures will climb into the upper 50s with plenty of sun. Another chilly night is on tap thanks to mostly clear skies, but no freezes are expected.Clouds will build and temperatures will moderate some Saturday.
The sun may finally show itself again later today. Thanks to early cloud cover and continued northerly winds, it will still be a cold day, though. Highs will only reach the low 50s. Clear skies overnight will allow freezing temperatures by Friday morning north and west of Lake Pontchartrain.
Another front has pushed through the area leading to a reinforcing shot of colder air but the good news, this front will be the one to finally send us some sunshine.
More cold air will arrive today on strong northerly winds. After a cloudy, chilly start, the thermometer will struggle to move even as clouds break later today. We will likely stay in the low 50s all day. Once skies clear tonight, temperatures will tumble.
We hoped for a few breaks for the afternoon, but even if we see any clearing it will be short lived as another system approaching from the west will pump up moisture into the evening hours.
It was cloudy and warm on Sunday ahead of another cold front in a very active pattern sitting across Southeast Louisiana and the Mississippi Gulf Coast. A quick moving line of showers brings rain ahead of the change in winds.
