Only changes to the on-going forecast are that the computer models are trending a little slower on the arrival of rain and storms Friday. A vigorous frontal trough will approach by midday Friday with showers and storms likely anytime from the morning through the early afternoon hours with a shield of rain likely behind the front Friday afternoon into the early evening hours. Rain total projections remain in the 1-2″ range for most of Acadiana Friday. As Dave mentioned earlier, it appears that any severe weather threat will be confined to Texas but there could be some healthy storms running ahead of the cold front in Acadiana but instability remains questionable while upper level winds remain healthy but should be weakening as the system moves over Louisiana. Although our highs on Friday will likely be in the mid-upper 60s temperatures will likely drop sharply by late Friday afternoon into Friday evening with lows Saturday morning dipping into the upper 30s with wind chills likely 10 degrees colder. Winter-time temperatures are likely this weekend with highs not making it out of the 40s Saturday and barely reaching the lower 50s Sunday while lows Sunday and Monday mornings will likely be near the freezing mark. Milder temperatures will return for next week but an active El Nino enhanced sub-tropical jet-stream will likely make for plenty of cloud cover and occasional rain chances starting late Monday and continuing for much of the week.
