Today's Records and Climate Data

Tired of the heat? Us too...Summer is supposed to be winding down, but the heat doesn’t always get the memo. 🥵 We’re well past the average last 100°F day across the Shreveport CWA, yet all 7 climate sites have recorded their latest 100°F day after the first day of fall. 🔥

A Heat Advisory remains in effect through 7 PM Tuesday. Heat index values will range from 105° to 109° during the afternoon hours. Please use caution when outdoors and know the signs of heat related illnesses.

The heat will remain in place for the upcoming week, although some indications are pointing towards a slightly cooler weekend (fingers crossed). Thunderstorm chances will remain for at least today before some drier conditions could take over? (Fingers not crossed)

High temperatures this afternoon will be in the mid 90s to near 100° with maximum heat indices between 105-109°. Isolated showers or thunderstorms can't be ruled out this afternoon.

Here are today's climate records for selected sites across our Four-State area.
