THIS MORNING, WE’RE GOING TO BE MAYBE SEEING WHAT SOME 50S THIS WEEKEND DAMON SINGLETON. YEAH, MORNING LOWS ON THE NORTH SHORE ESPECIALLY DROPPING INTO THE 50S MAYBE EVEN SOME 40S AS WE GO INTO SUNDAY AND EXCUSE ME AND MONDAY MORNING LOOKING PRETTY CLOUDY ACROSS SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA THIS MORNING. THE NATIONAL PICTURE SHOWS YOU THAT FRONTAL BOUNDARY MAKING ITS WAY TOWARDS THE EAST COAST. NOT MUCH RAINFALL UP AND DOWN THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY RIGHT NOW. WE’RE NOT EXPECTING MUCH AS WE GO THROUGH THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. BUT THOSE RAIN CHANCES FOR THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY GO UP TOWARDS THE MIDDLE TO LATTER PART OF NEXT WEEK. SO ALL THOSE RIVERS THAT FEED OR DRAIN INTO THE MISSISSIPPI ARE GOING TO GET SOME RAINFALL TOWARDS THE MIDDLE AND END OF NEXT WEEK. AND HERE IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA, WE’RE EXPECTING SOME RAINFALL AS WELL. BUT THAT FRONTAL BOUNDARY TAKES THE RAIN OUT OF THE AREA BY THE TIME WE GET TO SATURDAY. NEXT SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. SO NOT A LOT OF RAINFALL ACROSS THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. SO NOT A BIG IMPACT ON THE SALTWATER WEDGE HERE IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA. IT HAS, HOWEVER, SLOWED DRAMATICALLY. SO THE THE TIMING FOR THE ARRIVAL OF THAT WEDGE IN THE AREAS IN ALGERIA AND GRETNA, INSTEAD OF BEING IN OCTOBER NOW OR TOWARDS THANKSGIVING TIMEFRAME. SO WE’LL KEEP TRACK OF THAT AND WE’LL LET YOU KNOW AS THINGS CHANGE. OTHERWISE, OUT IN THE TROPICS, WE’RE FOLLOWING TROPICAL STORM PHILIPPE STILL. WE’VE GOT THIS TROPICAL WAVE THAT’S GOT A MEDIUM CHANCE OF DEVELOPING INTO A TROPICAL SYSTEM. NEITHER ONE OF THOSE IS AN ISSUE FOR US HERE IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO MOVE THE RAIN AND SOME OF THE SMOKE OFF TO THE EAST. THE TEMPERATURES MUCH COOLER BEHIND THAT FRONT THAT IS HEADED IN OUR DIRECTION. THE AIR IS ALSO MUCH DRIER AS WELL. YOU’LL NOTICE THE WIND SPEEDS INCREASING LATER ON TONIGHT AND SOME BREEZY CONDITIONS FOR THE MOST PART THIS WEEKEND. THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY GOES INTO EFFECT TONIGHT AND IT’S IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 A.M. ON SUNDAY DAY. SO EXPECT SOME ISSUES WITH THE WINDS IF YOU’RE TAKING YOUR BOAT OUT THIS WEEKEND. RIGHT NOW, THE WINDS ARE HARDLY BLOWING AT ALL, LIKE FIVE MILES PER HOUR FOR THE MOST PART. BUT THEY’LL BE GUSTING UP TO 15 TO 20, 25MPH LATER ON THIS EVENING AND TOMORROW MORNING, WE’LL SEE WHEN GUSTS LIKE 25 TO 30, MAYBE 35MPH. RIGHT NOW, TEMPERATURES NOT A LOT OF DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HOW THE ACTUAL TEMPERATURES AND HOW IT FEELS OUTSIDE BECAUSE THE DEW POINTS ARE SO LOW AND THE HUMIDITY IS HARDLY NOTICEABLE. SO LATER ON, IF YOU’RE HEADING OUT TO THE SAINT TAMMANY PARISH FAIR, YOU’RE IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE. TEMPERATURES RISING TO THE MID 80S THIS AFTERNOON FOR THE GENTILLY FESTIVAL OUT IN PONTCHARTRAIN PARK. YOU’RE LOOKING PRETTY GOOD THIS EVENING AS WELL. THOSE TEMPERATURES FALLING INTO THE 70S. THE BREEZY CONDITIONS ARE GOING TO BE WITH US THIS WEEKEND FOR GRETNA FEST LATER ON TONIGHT, THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. YOU’RE LOOKING PRETTY GOOD. SLIGHT CHANCE OF RAINFALL THIS AFTERNOON AND SKIES SHOULD BE CLEARING OUT PRETTY NICELY LATER ON TONIGHT. RIGHT NOW, TEMPERATURES LOW 70S ON THE NORTH SHORE. GOOD MIX OF LOW TO UPPER 70S ON THE SOUTH SHORE WITH YOUR AFTERNOON HIGHS RISING INTO THE MID TO TO THE UPPER 80S. YOU CAN SEE THERE’S STILL THAT CHANCE OF RAINFALL IN PARTS OF THE AREA LATER ON THIS AFTERNOON. AND THIS EVENING, BUT ONLY A LOW CHANCE OF THAT, HARDLY ANY CHANCE OF RAINFALL FOR YOUR SATURDAY SUNDAY STRETCHING INTO MONDAY. AND THERE YOUR RAIN CHANCES INCREASING AS WE GO INTO WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. YOUR WDSU FIRSAdvertisementWatching Philippe, a warm FridayWatching Philippe, a warm FridayMost of SELA is under either an extreme or exceptional drought, so while we need rain, rain chances are low through the weekend.A cold front moving through SELA will usher in some clear skies, lots of sunshine, strong winds and much cooler temperatures with low humidity for the weekend.A Small Craft Advisory has been issued for Lakes Maurepas, Pontchartrain and Borgne plus the Mississippi, Chandeleur and Breton Sounds and coastal areas of SELA into the Gulf of Mexico.
