We had some relief from the heat and drought the last full week of June, but the pattern has shifted back. The pattern should change somewhat again starting July 4, giving us our daily showers and storms again.

June has been the driest and hottest on record for Louisiana.

After another streak of hot, dry weather, the Gulf South region has been kind of soggy as of late as showers and storms have plagued the area...not because of the normal afternoon variety of storms but because of disturbances going around the upper high that has been putting a beat down on the Plains states with brutally hot weather.

Evening gang.

It's been a wet weather pattern across the area since I last posted...and it's putting a good dent in our drought and rain deficit. Today alone, New Orleans Int'l set a rainfall record for this date with 3.27 inches of rain, breaking the old record of 3.08 inches back in 1998. This also puts New Orleans more than five inches above normal for the month and gives the city the fifth wettest July ever on record. However, the city is still roughly 5.5 inches below normal for the year. Some street flooding occurred on the east bank of Jefferson Parish.

To sum things up: Don will stay south of us, but the high steering Don will move over us for the weekend and reduce rain chances. Above normal rain chances return next week.

Hey guys,

Hurricane Irene did help us out in one way: cooler nights on the Northshore; yet that has resulted in temps near 100° the past few days. Sadly, the humidity is coming back; yet there's a silver lining in that too as rain chances will increase from here on out.

Right now, there's a huge marsh fire at the Bayou Savage National Wildlife Refuge in New Orleans East, which has resulted in smoky/smelly conditions and reduced visibilities across the immediate Southshore (Kenner, Metairie, New Orleans, Westbank):


Quote
Wildfire in New Orleans east to continue producing irritable
smoke...

A wildfire continues to burn marsh grasses in New Orleans east near
Interstate 10 and Interstate 510. During the first part of
tonight... light south to southeast winds are expected. This may
transport the smoke northward and could cause some minor impacts
across portions of the North Shore... including Mandeville...
Covington and Slidell. Winds are expected to calm later in the
night. This may result in smoke becoming trapped near the surface in
the vicinity of the fire... and could also result in reduced
visibility along interstates 10 and 510 as well as in the
surrounding areas.

Smoke may remain trapped near the surface through the mid morning
hours Wednesday before winds strengthen and help to disperse it
through the afternoon.

Smoke from the fire will continue to be a possible health issue
in the area for sensitive groups... including the elderly and
people with respiratory diseases such as asthma. People in these
sensitive groups should avoid prolonged outdoor activities and
exertion.

Well, I did say rain chances were going to be increasing by the end of the week, but not like this: That wave in the Gulf is now TD #13 and will likely become TS Lee. That has really changed the forecast for the next several days. Eight to 15 inches of rain with isolated areas of up to twenty inches of rain is forecast across the entire region over the next several days.

WARNINGS/ADVISORIES

Tropical Storm Warnings are in effect for the entire SE Louisiana and Mississippi Gulf Coasts, including New Orleans and Lake Pontchartrain.

Inland Tropical Storm Warnings are in effect for: Ascension, Assumption, Jefferson, Lafourche, Livingston, Orleans, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, St. Charles, St. James, St. John the Baptist, St. Tammany, southern Tangipahoa and Terrebonne parishes and Harrison, Hancock and Jackson counties in Mississippi

A Flash Flood Watch is in effect until Sunday for the entire area except Pearl River County and the counties and northern parishes bordering the state line.

Lingering rains from the remains of Lee are moving out of SE Louisiana and across Mississippi as of this morning. Cooler and drier weather is moving into the area thanks to a cold front. However, there are still some advisories in effect:

* A Wind Advisory is in effect until midnight tonight for all parishes south of Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas and until 4 pm today for the rest of SE Louisiana and southern Mississippi.

* Numerous river flood warnings are in effect across the entire region.

* Flash Flood Watch until 4 pm for Washington Parish and southern Mississippi.

Not much activity across the Greater New Orleans region. Most of the activity was across the Northshore parishes and now have quieted to areas the Lafourche and Terrebonne coast.

Look for a 20 to 30 percent of showers and storms across the area for the weekend. Highs in the upper 80s to lower 90s. Lows from the mid 70s to near 80.

There's a solid shield of rain moving in at the moment. A Tornado Watch remains in effect for the Northshore parishes and some south Mississippi counties until 7 pm.
