DISCUSSION

Well, it may not seem like much, but with slightly drier moving in for Monday, it won't feel quiet as oppressive.

Do not get me wrong, it'll still be quite hot out there, but heat indices will be manageable.

A couple lone pop-up showers could be possible during the afternoon, but rain chances won't be much better than 20%.

A pretty quiet and hot weather pattern will ensue for the remainder of the week.

Plan on highs to push the mid-upper 90s just about each and every afternoon.

The higher humidity will sneak back in by the middle parts of the week.

I see little to no change heading into the upcoming weekend as well.

Have a great week

Tropics update

Regardless of anything quick spinning up, it will likely get torn apart by wind shear down the line.

It is no threat to Acadiana.
