Good Feel Air Coming Next Week...

We had some midday showers blow through today as a slow moving upper low over Arkansas provided the necessary set up for daytime heating storms.  A line of storms oriented west to east developed (training)across St. Mary's Parish (Morgan City) resulting in 3-4" over 2-3 hours.  Fortunately the band weakened but that is the kind of rainfall one can expect as long as the upper low is nearby.  By Sunday the low pulls out and a NW upper flow will dry us out.  In addition, that pattern will bring down some very pleasant air from the north that will come in 2 surges.    The first will dry us out for Sunday and Monday with the second cooling down the North Shore into the 60s (!!!) for Tuesday-Friday of next week.  We'll feel that air South of Lake P., but water temps in the mid to upper 80s will keep us generally in the low to mid 70s.   North Winds next week will mean great fishing conditions along the coast as the beaches will see flat sea conditions.  It's not very often we see a real June cold/cool front, but next week upper pattern, if real, will allow that to happen.  Enjoy your weekend as we begin the drying process.  Stay tuned!
