Good Morning Acadiana!

It's always fun to be a meteorologist when you get to deliver good news to your community. The weather for the next three days will be on a repeat pattern of amazing temperatures and dry, cool air. Temperatures will fall from a high of 81 just yesterday, to a low tonight in the mid to low 40s. What a change! With plenty of sunshine and clear skies, we are looking at a high near 69 this afternoon. We will progressively cool from there thanks to the strong winds bringing in colder, drier air.

So the great news is I get to keep telling you about this enjoyable copycat behavior weather for a few more days. The KATC weather team is hoping everyone gets to enjoy it!
