DESTREHAN. AND NOW ITS TIME FOR ANOTHER CHECK ON OUR FIRST WARNING WEATHER. BUT TODAY, NICE AND SUNNY OUTSIDE. SO ITS A PERFECT DAY TO BE OUTSIDE. ITS SUNNY. ITS GOING TO BE WARM. ITS GOING TO BE A LITTLE HUMID. AND I KNOW THERE ARE STILL SOME PEOPLE WITHOUT POWER. WE WERE HOPING THAT THE DEW POINT WOULD BE A LITTLE LOWER. THE HUMIDITY WOULD BE A LITTLE BIT LOWER. THATS NOT REALLY WORKING OUT SO MUCH. UNFORTUNATELY, ITS STILL HOT OUT THERE. STILL PRETTY HOT. WERE STILL IN A SUMMERTIME WEATHER PATTERN, IF YOU WILL. SOME AFTERNOON SHOWERS ARE GOING TO POP UP FOR US STARTING TOMORROW. TODAY SHOULD BE MAINLY DRY AND WERE AT 78 IN BATON ROUGE. 81 OUR CURRENT TEMPERATURE IN BOGALUSA. WERE GOING TO END UP CLOSE TO 90 DEGREES IN MOST LOCATIONS, ALTHOUGH ITS A LITTLE MORE COMFORTABLE IN HOMA 73, THE CURRENT TEMPERATURE THERE 82 RIGHT NOW IN GALLIANO. HERE ARE YOUR CURRENT CONDITIONS AT LOUIS ARMSTRONG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. DEW POINT AT 75. 81. THE CURRENT TEMPERATURE WITH WIND FROM THE WEST TO SOUTHWEST AT ABOUT SIX MILES PER HOUR. NOT GOING TO BE AN OVERLY BREEZY DAY, BUT THEYRE GOING TO BE RACING TODAY AT THE FAIRGROUNDS. ITS THEIR CLOSING WEEKEND AS FAR AS THE QUARTER HORSE MEAT GOES, AND THEY HAVE 13 RACES TODAY. ONE OF THEM HAS A HALF A MILLION DOLLAR PURSE, SO THATS A BIG DEAL. WEATHER SHOULD BE GREAT. TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 80S FOR THE FIRST RACE AT NOON BY 515, JUST ABOUT WHEN THE LAST RACE GOES OFF. SHOULD BE STILL IN THE 80S WITH MAINLY SUNNY SKIES. ALL RIGHT. THE CLOUDS THAT YOURE LOOKING AT IN THE RAIN, THATS WHAT USED TO BE FRANCINE. VERY DISORGANIZED RIGHT NOW. HOWEVER, SOME OF THAT MOISTURE MAY PLAY AN IMPACT ON OUR FORECAST STARTING TOMORROW. AND ESPECIALLY MONDAY AND TUESDAY. THIS COLD FRONT. AND TO CALL IT A COLD FRONT. BOY, OH, BOY, THATS A BIT OF A STRETCH, BUT ITS GOING TO BECOME STATIONARY STAY IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. SOME OF THE MOISTURE MAY INTERACT WITH THAT FRONT. SO STARTING TOMORROW WELL PROBABLY HAVE A FEW SHOWERS IN THE AFTERNOON. BETTER CHANCE FOR RAIN. MOST LIKELY COMING MONDAY AND TUESDAY. ALL RIGHT. WE GO TO THE TROPICS RIGHT NOW BECAUSE THIS AREA OF CLOUDINESS VERY DISORGANIZED. AND I READ THE DISCUSSION FROM THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER. IT LOOKS LIKE ITS MOVING AWAY FROM THE UNITED STATES. IT ACTUALLY IS EXPECTED TO KIND OF DRIFT A LITTLE BIT MORE NORTHWESTWARD OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS, SO MAY BRING SOME RAIN TO THE CAROLINAS, BUT THAT DOESNT LOOK ORGANIZED AT ALL, EVEN THOUGH IT DOESNT LOOK ORGANIZED. HURRICANE CENTER REALLY BELIEVES THERES A 50% CHANCE FOR DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS. HERES OUR ONLY OFFICIAL TROPICAL SYSTEM. THIS IS TROPICAL STORM GORDON, BUT NO ONES TOO WORRIED ABOUT THIS ONE. YOULL NOTICE THAT ITS NOT REALLY GOING TO GET ITS ACT TOGETHER. REMAIN A TROPICAL STORM, AND ACTUALLY WEAKEN A BIT OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS, MAKING ITS WAY TO THE WEST. AND THEN THE NORTH. OTHER THAN THAT, TROPICS, THANKFULLY, ARE QUIET. HIGH TEMPERATURE TODAY IS GOING TO MAKE IT INTO THE UPPER 80S CLOSE TO 90 DEGREES. MATTER OF FACT, COULD BREAK 90 AT THE AIRPORT, 91 POSSIBLY IN HAMMOND AND YES, WELL GET A COUPLE OF SHOWERS, BUT THE CHANCE FOR RAIN OFFICIALLY AT 10% AND ANY RAIN TODAY I THINK IS GOING TO BE PRETTY LIGHT. NOW, TOMORROW MORNING, WERE LIKELY GOING TO HAVE A FEW COASTAL SHOWERS FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. YOU SEE THEM RIGHT THERE? NOTHING MAJOR THOUGH. I THINK THOSE SHOWERS ARE GOING TO BE FAIRLY ISOLATED. AND THEN THE CHANCE FOR RAIN IN THE AFTERNOON. THIS MODEL REALLY DOESNT SHOW IT THAT WELL, BUT ITS ABOUT A 30% CHANCE FOR SHOWERS, MAYBE EVEN AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM. BUT THE BETTER CHANCE FOR RAIN IS COMING FOR US MONDAY AND TUESDAY. AND EVEN THEN, I DONT THINK ITS GOING TO BE A SOAKING RAIN, JUST SOME SHOWERS POPPING UP IN THE AFTERNOON. MOSTLY SUNNY, 10% CHANCE FOR AN ISOLATED SHOWER TODAY. HIGH TEMPERATURES GOING TO BE IN THE UPPER 80S. CLOSE TO 90 DEGREES. RELATIVELY COMFORTABLE EVENING, ALTHOUGH A LITTLE BIT MUGGY FOR US TONIGHT. TOMORROW MORNING LIKE THIS MORNING. NORTH SHORE PROBABLY GOING TO WAKE UP IN THE UPPER 60S LOW 70S EVERYWHERE ELSE WITH A LIGHT WESTERLY WIND. AND THEN TOMORROW A 30% CHANCE FOR SHOWERS IN THE AFTERNOON. PROBABLY HAVE A FEW SHOWERS CLOSE TO THE COAST RIGHT AROUND DAYBREAK AND THE CHANCE FOR RAIN GOING UP A BIT MORE FOR US BY MONDAY AND TUESDAY. NOT TYPICAL SUMMERTIME BIG THUNDERSTORMS THAT ARE GOING TO PRODUCE OVER AN INCH OF RAIN. THESE SHOWERS ARE GOING TO BE ON THE MORE LIGHT TO MODERATE SIDE MONDAY. AND TUESDAY. CHANCE FOR RAIN GOING DOWN TO 30% ON WEDNESDAY AND BY THE END OF THE WEEK AND THE WEEKEND, I THINK ITS GOING TO GET JUST A TOUC
