The center of the upper high is parked over north Louisiana today and models are slowly pulling it back to the west (retrograding) by Wednesday. That should allow more clouds and T-Storms to develop making our temperatures less hot for Wed-Friday. As an example, MSY at 3 PM was 95 while a T-Storm over Slidell cooled them to 76. Hopefully the shifting of the upper high and a return of the eastern trough will bring us several days of relief from our daily heat advisories. By next weekend, the high builds back east so we'll be back in the oven.
The Eastern Pacific is getting active but there still are no systems in our part of the Tropics. The GFS (American) Model is hinting something might try to develop in the Gulf in the 12-14 day time frame. That is way out so I don't read much into it. The next 7-10 days should remain quiet. Beyond that? It's, historically, getting closer to the most active time of hurricane season. Will this year be different? Stay tuned!
