Ahead of our next cold cold front, it will stay mild and muggy for Friday night and early Saturday. Temperatures will settle into the low to mid 60s Friday night and begin to rise back into the 70s during the first half of Saturday. Also, a few isolated showers, and perhaps a thunderstorm, will be around.
During the day on Saturday a cold front will move in. By Saturday afternoon, as highs reach into the mid 70s to around 80, rain chances will go back up to 50%. Therefore, parade krewes will certainly want to check out the radar before time to roll on Saturday. Sunday, behind the front, temperatures will fall off into the 60s, but there will still be a 30% chance of leftover light rain showers, so some parades may still get a little wet.
Next week, we'll stay unsettled and cooler with highs in the 60s and a chance of residual rain early on Monday and then again with a possible Gulf Low on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
