Weather: Risk of Severe Weather in Louisiana Late Wednesday

Chief Meteorologist Chris Franklin has a look at the risk of severe weather tomorrow evening and the cooler, drier air moving in behind. Most of the area is under a Slight (2 of 5) risk for isolated severe storms, but northern Tangi and Washington have been placed under an Enhanced (3 of 5) risk. Although the greatest risk is across central MS and AL, where a 4 of 5 or Moderate Risk has been upgraded with a significant risk of tornadoes. The timing is in fairly good agreement by most models arriving after 7 or 8 pm and leaving around 11 or midnight. Once the front is clear of the area, cooler and less humid air will move in. Morning temps Thursday will be in the 50s and the afternoon will stay in the 60s under sunny skies! 40s to begin Friday and Saturday with highs in the mid 60s. Upper 60s by Sunday, 70s early next week and a bit more humid.
