Some Rain Sat...Better Sunday

Another upper disturbance in south Texas will bring us several rainy periods on Saturday, but there should be many dry hours too. It will be rather chilly with highs staying in the lower 60s at best. As the upper low pulls away on Sunday, skies will clear but brisk north winds will keep us chilly with highs staying in the mid 60s. Looking down the road into next week, several surges of cold air will work into the lower 48. We'll see a weak front on Tuesday with a stronger surge for Thanksgiving day. Highs will struggle to get out of the 50s.

Wow...gotta read Dr. Masters blog on weatherunderground today. He's really defending the "science" of global warming and how CO2 is the driver. However, many of his points have been refuted by other PHD types...especially his comments about Arctic sea ice. Geez, I don't know who to believe except it's not as black & white as Dr. Masters tries to explain. I'll keep reading & searching for the REAL truth. Hope you do the same. Enjoy your weekend and Watch the Saints go 10 & OH on FOX 8 Sunday at Noon. Who Dat Says?

Rain Returning For Saturday...

Radars are lighting up along the Texas coast just south of Houston and most model runs bring this weather across Louisiana after midnight into mid to late afternoon on Saturday. How much rain will depend on the track of the Gulf low that is predicted to develop. VIPIR keeps the center far south with the heaviest rainfall off our coast. Some of the other models bring the low closer to the mouth of the river. That would spread heavier rainfall over us. Bottom line...with 11 days left in the month, it's unlikely that our current 6th driest November (.37") will hold up. In fact with 1-2" possible, we'll drop out of the top ten driest.

This same system will move thru Tampa Saturday night into Sunday. It appears most of the rain will be east of Tampa before the Saint's game on Sunday. Go Saints !!!
