Very dry air will remain as relative humidity plummets between 25 to 35 percent with winds gusting out of the north up to 30 mph at times, especially across Northeast & Central Louisiana. As a result, a Red Flag Warning & Fire Danger Statement is in effect from 9 AM to 7 PM.
Expecting clear skies and seasonably chilly temperatures tonight with lows ranging from as low as the upper 30s north of Interstate Twenty to the low to mid 40s along and south of I-20. Those with outdoor evening plans should consider wearing a jacket or sweater.
Even though winds will be lighter on Sunday, the combination of afternoon relative humidity values ranging from 25 to 35 percent and dry grasses and stressed trees will promote an environment prone to wildfire ignitions. Please follow your county or parish burn ban guidance.
Severe to exceptional drought continues across our region, along with numerous Burn Bans. Please remember to check with your local, county/parish, or state officials before starting any outdoor fires.
Here are today's climate records for selected sites across the Four State area.
