NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — Warm and muggy conditions will continue around the area Wednesday with daytime heating cloud cover. Look for highs in the upper 80s and dewpoints in the mid to upper 60s. A spotty shower or two can’t be ruled out.
Temperatures will be warm with the mid to upper 80s and then drop mostly into the 60s tonight into Thursday morning.
Recent model trends now put a storm cluster coming through the area on Thursday. This would be similar to what we saw on Monday with a line of heavy rain and gusty winds moving through midday with lingering showers. It’s important to note this is a recent trend that needs to be watched through the day. However be prepared to at least deal with some rain Thursday. Details on timing and coverage are still tricky.
Friday looks like hit or miss activity in terms of rain with drier weather through the weekend as temperatures heat back up to the upper 80s.
