Ashley Renee Good morning everyone and happy Tuesday. Skies will remain overcast today. Winds will become breezy. A few showers will move through south Louisiana this morning, but rain will become more widespread as the day goes on. Lighter rain and heavier rain will move through our area. Heavier rain will lead to a risk of flash flooding. South Louisiana is outlined under a marginal risk (1/4) and a slight risk (2/4) for flash flooding. A flood watch is in effect until 7 AM Thursday for south Louisiana and our southwest Mississippi counties. Estimated rainfall amounts are around 3-5 inches for south Louisiana. These higher rainfall estimates will lead to a flash flooding threat once again. Last week, south Louisiana received a few inches of rainfall. With the grounds still saturated, this will cause flooding issues. Gusty winds, heavy rain and flooding are all concerns for today through Thursday, but Wednesday is our main day of concern. Showers and thunderstorms and heavy rainfall will impact our area all throughout Wednesday. Initially, it appeared that Francine would make landfall Wednesday night. Now, it looks like Francine could make landfall during the afternoon/early evening. Either way, Wednesday will have deteriorating weather conditions. Francine should make landfall near Vermilion Bay in southwest Louisiana. Since Baton Rouge will be on the eastern side of the storm, we'll have a tornado threat in addition to other unfavorable weather conditions in association with the hurricane. Southeast Louisiana and south Mississippi are under a marginal risk for severe weather (1/5) and a slight risk for severe weather (2/5). Stronger to severe thunderstorms, damaging wind gusts, and isolated tornadoes will be possible on Wednesday&primarily during the peak daytime heating hours. Francine is still expected to move out pretty quickly. The hurricane will of course weaken over land. Heavy rain and high winds will continue throughout Wednesday and into Thursday. After the system is fully out of our area, we'll see an improvement in weather conditions. Just to recap, Tuesday is the final day to get prepared for this storm. Have enough gas in your car, enough food and water and your emergency supplies. No one should be outside anywhere on Wednesday or early Thursday. Drier weather will return on Friday and this weekend. Stay tuned for more updates on air and online. Stay safe and have a terrific Tuesday! ASHLEY RENEE Ashley Renee Ashley Renee Good morning everyone and happy Tuesday. Skies will remain overcast today.
