Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service New Orleans LA 622pm CDT Monday May 12 2025 Long Term (Wednesday through Sunday night) Issued at 255pm CDT Monday May 12 2025 As high pressure continues to build over the area and southerly flow dominates, humidities and temperatures will be on a warming trend through the week. The high temperatures Wednesday and Thursday will be in the upper 80s while Friday through the weekend, temperatures will be approaching the low 90s. Heat index values will be approaching 100 degrees as we head into the weekend as well. Looking at the models, little to no accumulated precipitation is expected in the long term forecast. The Euro in particular emphasizes more zonal flow aloft for the weekend pattern, so we can't rule out the chance just yet of an isolated shower or two over the weekend. But if that occurs, it would be quite brief and localized in scale (PoPs around 10-20%). The more likely consensus at this point is that the ridge continues to dominate and we continue these warm and drier conditions. Consequently, be careful of the heat because this time of year it can sneak up on folks. We are at the beginning of summer, and people are not yet fully adjusted to the warmer temperatures, especially after the cool snap we just have been experiencing. The key is to stay hydrated, wear loose fitting clothing, and take breaks if needed. MSW Marine Issued at 255pm CDT Monday May 12 2025 Tonight through Tuesday night, westerly and moderate (10-15kts) winds are expected. Tuesday night through Thursday afternoon, winds will be strong (15-20kts) and southerly, especially for our western waters. Thursday night through the weekend, wind will be southerly and moderate (10-15kts). MSW NOAA New Orleans LA Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories LA...None. GM...None. MS...None. GM...None. |
