Last Map Update: Mon, Feb 23, 2026 at 2:00:17 am CST

A Red Flag Warning is in effect from today from 9am through 6 PM. A combination between very low RH values and gusty winds will make conditions favorable for fires to start and spread rapidly.
Critical fire weather conditions are expected today. Dry fuels and gusty winds could allow fires to spread rapidly. Avoid outdoor burning, use caution with equipment that may create sparks, and follow all burn bans and local restrictions. Report any fire immediately to local officials or 911.
Winter makes a return through Tuesday with colder mornings expected across southeast Louisiana and southern Mississippi. While a widespread freeze is not anticipated Monday morning, several hours of below freezing temperatures are likely Tuesday morning near and north of I-10/12. Take precautions to protect people, pets, pipes, and sensitive plants.
Warming trend through midweek with highs climbing from the 50s Monday to the mid and upper 70s by Wednesday and Thursday. Rain chances increase late Thursday into early Friday with scattered showers and storms.
