Local forecast:
Morning temperatures will be in the upper 70s in most areas, with temperatures in the upper 80s around the lake.
Some isolated storms may pick up winds along the lake, so the chance of rain is very low at around 20%.
High temperatures will reach 93/94 but will feel hotter to 110 at times.
Another heat warning will be in effect for most of southeastern Louisiana from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Wednesday should be a lot like Monday and Tuesday, with a slight chance of showers and storms brought by the lake breeze, with highs climbing into the mid 90s, but feeling more like 110 at times.
tropical:
There is an area around the Greater Antilles where there is a moderate (50%) chance of tropical development by the end of the week.
The system, located about 1,000 miles east of the Lesser Antilles, is expected to be driven by tropical waves, expanding and intensifying storm activity.
The system will enter conditions favorable for possible development, including warm water temperatures, relatively low wind shear, and high atmospheric humidity.
One of our best predictions is to hope that the system moves across the Greater Antilles and is influenced by the Bermuda High, which guides it away from the southeastern U.S. coast
This is just a business forecast, but similar to the forest as a whole, it often gives us the best picture of the long-term outlook.
Be sure to follow the WDSU First Alert Weather Team for all the latest updates on weather in the tropics and Southeast Louisiana.
Seven-day forecast:
We expect heat warnings to be in effect for much of this week, requiring WDSU to issue a Hazardous Heat First Alert Weather Day.
Stay cool and stay safe!
