The Next Rainmaker For Louisiana

A low pressure system will send warm and cold fronts across the Lower Mississippi Valley on Tuesday.  While thunderstorms are in the forecast, latest projections from the NWS’s Storm Prediction Center (SPC) and Weather Prediction Center (WPC) indicate no significant concerns with regard to severe storms or excessively-heavy rainfall.

Most of the state can expect less than 1/4" of rain, with isolated larger totals where slower-moving t-storms have an impact.
