NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — The next cold front will be moving through Saturday night with a line of rain and storms. The SPC has our area highlighted in the level 1 threat zone for severe weather, mainly for a strong wind gust potential.
Saturday looks to be warm with highs in the upper 70s and there is a high rain chance, but mainly for the overnight timeframe. A couple of spotty showers are possible during the day Saturday but the bulk of the rain and storms are forecast to move through between 9 p.m. Saturday and 5 a.m. Sunday.
There is a low end chance of a strong to severe storm as this system moves through.
Once the wet weather clears and the cold front passes through, cooler and drier conditions are expected once again. Highs on Sunday will only be in the 50s with overnight lows in the 30s and 40s by Monday morning.
