NEW ORLEANS —
New Orleans Latest Weather Forecast
After a stretch of active weather, we will settle into a hot and humid pattern this week with little or no rain. An upper-level high-pressure ridge will build from Mexico and south Texas. This will keep any chance of rain slim.
Looking back at the past few days, we recorded around 2-3 inches of rain from Thursday night through Saturday morning. It looks like it could be another week or so before we get another chance of rain.
Temperatures will rise to around 90° each afternoon this week. With ample humidity it could feel like upper 90s or even lower 100s later this week. Many schools are letting out for summer, so kids and parents should remember to dress cool and drink lots of water. Take it easy if you start to feel tired or faint when exercising and working outdoors.
A weak front may head our way at the end of the week, but it doesn't look like we'll get big impacts. Expect more 90s and mainly dry weather through next weekend which is Memorial Day Weekend.
