Weather for Louisiana
Well, happy Saturday.
We have a med chance for development in the BOC with a cluster of thunderstorms. Chances over 5 days is currently 40%. No reason to panic. Still a ways off. Most likely will be a sloppy storm and be more of a rain threat vs wind. But can still cause issues for wherever it goes. Timeline looks to be mid to late next week, so Father’s day could be a wet one.
NHC has highlighted an area near the CAG in regards to a possible development in the next 10 days. Chances of formation in 5 days is low at 20%
Well, may 21st and we have had our first storm. Ana is a sub tropical storm, and poses no risk to LA. But with that, take the time to prep now, and be ready.
Happy mothers day, weather across most of the state should be relatively good. I know here in SELA its been great.
On a side note, hurricane season is less than a month away. And look whats already started!
But so far,signs look for another busy season, so start your plans now.
Area just north of the sela line has been upgraded to a moderate risk. Wind chances have been upped for areas in sela also.
A tornado watch has been issued for parts of Central and sela. More expected as things move east.
May 4th is setting up for most of LA and MS to be another round of severe weather.
A small area is under a hatched risk for “gorilla hail” or hail 2″ or bigger. Alex will see weather around lunch and sela after. Pars of swla could see some action as well. Tornado risk is there but cells located ahead of the line pose the greatest risk. Depending on cold pool setup, could see some training with localized flash flooding.
As always, have multiple ways to get alerts.
Herr we are, April 26. Southeast LA and a good chunk of the southeast US has seen some significant severe weather. We’ve been having some good rain also. But soon we will transition to summer, and hurricane season.
Working on expanding the site to cover sw la and eventually north la. Those will have river levels, nws info and local readings.
So….. Here we are, Feb and just had a record cold in TX and LA! We got down to 17 where I’m at. But hopefully thats end of the cold. I dont know about you, but im ready for Spring and Summer!
We are approaching our Spring Severe WX season, so have multiple ways to recieve alerts, as these events can happen quickly.
And June 1 starts our 2021 Hurricane season. Start prepping now so you dont get caught off guard!
Last note, i do plan on trying to be more active on the site. Share the page and SM accounts.
Thanks for visiting my site. I’ve created this site with the hopes of providing weather for southeast Louisiana. I love weather, I love learning about it and hope to continue!! I hope you get something from this site. If not, we’ll thanks for visiting anyways!!! Leave a comment on how I could improve and I’ll see what I can do.
I have always had a liking for weather but it was more than just looking at the clouds. I’ve always loved looking at storm structures, tracking thunderstorms across the landscape (in person and on radar). I’ve always been intrigued on how hurricanes interact with the global atmosphere. Now all I wonder is why didn’t I got to college to become a meteorologist!!! I continue to learn and see what limits I can push myself to!!
