EARLY, HIS CONFIDENCE. HYATT REGENCY CAM BEHIND US HERE. WE GOT A COUPLE OF CLOUDS. I WANT TO START WITH WDSU. FIRST WARNING WEATHER DOPPLER RADAR. WE WERE TRACKING QUITE THE STORMS EARLIER. THEY ARE ALL GONE. A COUPLE OF SPRINKLES THAT WERE NEAR LAROSE. DO WE HAVE ANYTHING THAT’S STILL THERE? I REALLY DON’T THINK SO. CUT OFF LAROSE AREA. WE GET RIGHT ON INTO OUR DOPPLER RADAR. AND THAT’S THE LAST OF ALL SHE WROTE FOR ANY OF THE RAIN HERE TONIGHT. WHAT ARE WE LOOKING AT, THOUGH? FOR THE REAL TIME TEMPERATURES? WE’LL START WITH THE HERE AND NOW. MILD AND MUGGY TEMPERATURES AROUND 70 FOR MOST. BUT HAMMONDS AT 64. SOME 60S HAVE WORKED IN NORTH FROM THE STORMS THAT CAME THROUGH EARLIER. DROP THE DEW POINTS A BIT THAT DIRECTION. WE’RE STILL AROUND 70 TO THE SOUTH SHORE. ANYTHING IN THE WAY OF ANY FOG DEVELOPING YET? WE’RE REALLY THROUGH THE WORST OF OUR FOG SEASON. SO NOW WE GET TO THE NIGHTTIME HOURS. IF WE’VE JUST GOT THAT HAZE IN THE AIR AND WE GET SOME CLEAR SKIES, WE CAN GET SOME PATCHY FOG. SO THE SETUP HAS BEEN HERE. WE’VE HAD WEAK FRONTS KIND OF STALLING OUT ACROSS THE AREA, SYSTEMS OVERHEAD ROLLING THROUGH HEAT AND HUMIDITY IN PLACE. AND THAT SPELLS OUR KIND OF EARLY SEASON DAYTIME THUNDERSTORMS AND STILL MORE TO GET THROUGH AS WE HEAD TO THE WEEKEND. SO WE’RE NOT COMPLETELY RAIN FREE FOR ALL THOSE EVENTS THIS WEEKEND. AND MANY OF THOSE OF COURSE, COMING OUR WAY. JUST TO SHOW NOTHING ON RADAR YET AGAIN. PATCHY FOG TOMORROW MORNING. AS I JUST DESCRIBED. IT’S MILD AND MUGGY. WE’RE RIGHT AROUND 70 IN THE SOUTH SHORE. NORTH SHORE, THOSE DEW POINTS DOWN A BIT SO WE CAN GET INTO THE 60S. AS FOR STORM CHANCES TOMORROW, ISOLATED IN NATURE, BUT THIS DOES SHOW AND DEPICT ONE STORM RIGHT OVER THE HEART OF THE CITY, AND THAT’S GOING TO BE FAIRGROUNDS AREA BELLE CHASSE TO SOME STORMS EARLY AFTERNOON. YOU KNOW, THESE STORMS DEPICTIONS USUALLY DON’T PLACE EXACTLY WHERE THEY’RE GOING TO HAPPEN THE NEXT DAY. IT JUST SHOWS THERE’S EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AT ABOUT A 20% CHANCE TOMORROW. IT’S NOT HIGH, BUT THEY STILL EXIST. ANY STORM STILL COULD BRING THE CHANCE OF SOME STRONG WIND GUSTS, SMALL HAIL POTENTIAL, BUT EVEN SOME LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. SO IT’S AN IMPACT DAY TEMPERATURE TO 85. JAZZ FEST BOUTTE CAST HAVE THEM JUST IN CASE THE GROUNDS AREN’T WET SO FAR, AND TEMPERATURE ABOUT 85. WE’RE OF COURSE STAYING WITH THE HATS AND SUNSCREEN AND A LOT OF WATER. NOW NORTH SHORE ITALIAN FEST AT TICKFAW. WE HAD SOME STORMS LIKELY OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS. NORTH SHORE. SO THAT’S WHERE I’D SAY MAYBE A LITTLE BIT OF A HIGHER CHANCE. AND THE TOMATO FEST CHALMETTE. WE’RE ALSO FEELING FINE THERE TOO, INTO SUNDAY. STILL AN ISOLATED STORM IN THE MIX. YOU SEE THIS DEPICTION RIGHT OVER THE CITY YET AGAIN. WE’RE GOING TO GO TO ABOUT A 10 TO 20% CHANCE YET AGAIN. TEMPERATURES COULD BE A LITTLE BIT HOTTER. I GOT US UP TO 87, NEARING 90, IN SOME OF THE HOTTEST SPOTS IN THE NORTH SHORE. FINAL ROUND ZURICH CLASSIC. WE JUST DID OUR PIECE ON THEIR 90 PLUS. WE’RE UP TO 87 AND THEN WE’VE GOT THE BOUTTE CASTING IN HERE. I DON’T THINK WE REALLY NEED THE BOOTS FOR JAZZ FEST COMING INTO SUNDAY. THE RAIN CHANCE THERE. I’VE GOT ABOUT DOWN TO 10% CHANCE INTO NEXT WEEK FOR SURE. MONDAY TO TUESDAY, THE RAIN CHANCES BELOW 10%. WE’RE HEATING UP EVEN FURTHER 8889 TO 90. AND WE’LL CONTINUE THAT HEAT BEFORE THE NEXT LIKELIEST ROUND OF WIDESPREAD STORMS. AND NEXT WEEK IS JAZZFEST OPENS UP YET AGAIN. SEVEN DAY FORECAST IMPACT DAYS WILL REALLY BE FOR THE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN THREAT. SOME STRONGER STORMS. SO THAT’S THIS WEEKEND. THAT’S NEX
