Weather Report - April 23, 2012

 

  Great Spring Weather Ahead ...

A weak cool front is on the move - pushing southward and bringing to south Louisiana/southern Mississippi a surge of very cool April air! This morning, we're starting off in the upper 40s - lower 50s; subtract another handful of degrees tomorrow and we may well end up with a new record low for metro Baton Rouge! With a forecast temperature of 44 degrees, that will be enough to squeeze past the previous record low of 45, set in 2005! Overall, a warming trend will begin Wednesday - both in the morning and afternoon - as a southerly wind flow returns. Highs will top out in the mid to upper 80s; morning lows in the 50s/60s and don’t expect rain anytime soon (perhaps 30% by Sunday)! - Diane Deaton, WAFB Storm Team
