| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lake Charles LA 624pm CDT Tuesday Oct 27 2026 (This evening through next Monday) Issued at 1231pm CDT Tuesday Oct 27 2026 Tuesday afternoon surface analysis shows high pressure ridging into the forecast area from the north/northeast, dominating much of the east CONUS and providing a light to moderate easterly winds across the CWA. Aloft, ridging is beginning to flatten out over the east CONUS, providing a more W/SW flow overhead. This has allowed for an influx of moisture across SE TX, mainly noticeable in an increase in cloud cover which has begun to spread into our LA parishes as well. In addition, area radar shows very light shower activity occurring over the Houston region and while unlikely, we could see some of this spread into Hardin and Jefferson CO this afternoon. Otherwise, another warm but dry afternoon is expected with highs topping out in the low to mid 80s. The remainder of the work week will bring much of the same as the synoptic pattern remains fairly unchanged into Friday. On Friday, a pattern change finally arrives as a couple of features simultaneously bring a surge of moisture into the region, increasing rain chances as we head into Halloween weekend. Firstly, the remnants of TS Vance in the Pacific will be moving across Mexico and into the Southern Plains bringing a surge of moisture across TX. At the same time, guidance depicts a weak surface trough/disturbance pulling a slug of moisture into the region from the south/southeast. These two moisture rich atmospheres will mesh overhead through the second half of Friday, allowing PWATs (Precipitable Waters) to surge to near and above the 90th percentile (~1.69") from late Friday through Saturday. This will bring an uptick in rain chances through this same general period, with isolated shower activity possibly by Friday evening and rain chances increasing further throughout Saturday before tapering off by early Sunday. While this won't be a drought buster, with generally less than 1" of rain expected through this ~36 hour period, any rain is welcomed at this point. In addition, no substantial severe risk is present but a strong storm can't be ruled out at the moment. While rain chances taper off by early Sunday, this influx of moisture will hang around until the end of the forecast period, providing warm and humid conditions from Friday night onward. Daytime highs will rang from the low to mid 80s each day, while overnight lows hanging out in the low to mid 60s (5-10 degrees above seasonal norms) from Fri-Monday night. Around the end of this forecast period another pattern change looks to arrive, with guidance indicating a strong frontal passage at some point next Tuesday that will likely be accompanied by widespread rainfall and followed by a nice cool down. Marine Issued at 1231pm CDT Tuesday Oct 27 2026 A light to moderate easterly flow continues into early next week, with occasional gusts to 15-20 kts possible over the weekend as the pressure gradient briefly tightens. A couple of very isolated showers will be possible today with otherwise dry conditions continuing into Friday. Friday afternoon, rain chances return and remain elevated through Saturday as a surge of moisture overspreads the region. Fire Weather Issued at 1231pm CDT Tuesday Oct 27 2026 A slight uptick in moisture today will keep afternoon min RH values in the 40-60% range. Dry conditions return tomorrow and Thursday followed by a surge of moisture arriving on Friday. Rain chances return late Friday through Saturday in response. While this won't be enough to put much of any dent in the drought it should be enough to provide a wetting rain. In addition, moisture remains elevated into next week with afternoon min RH values remaining above 50% each day. NOAA Lake Charles LA Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories LA...None. TX...None.
