Good evening! The forecast for today across New Orleans and southeast Louisiana is cooler, once again, with humidity and fewer storms keeping temperatures low for July across each side of Lake Pontchartrain! Feels like conditions are now ranging between the 80s and 90s.
Afternoon highs reached the upper 80s to 90 once again today. Overnight, over both Northshore and Southshore locations, expect 70s on both sides of Lake Pontchartrain.
Tomorrow, again, there’s the chance we see additional widespread rain chances! Scattered activity cannot be ruled out with about a 50% or 60% threat of storms. Chances will be beginning to start trending down some by Sunday evening, so some good news there!
Of course, this is going to mean temperatures rise into mostly upper 80s or low 90s all week, feeling much hotter! Typical forecasts for late July!
The tropics are currently quiet with minimal development potential into next week! We are not complaining!
