NEW ORLEANS —
New Orleans Latest Weather Forecast
Our highest chance of rain this week comes on Monday as a storm system to our west sends us showers and thunderstorms. The earliest rain could start by late morning around 9 or 10 a.m., but the bulk of the rain will likely roll through from roughly 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The severe risk is not especially high since the system is expected to weaken as it arrives, but a few storms could bring high wind gusts and brief heavy rain. Rain totals look like up to 1-2 inches. Rain ends by the evening.
Tuesday and Wednesday look nicer with lower chances for rain and warm temperatures in the 80s.
A few spotty showers will be possible Thursday through Sunday although no day looks like a washout. Temperatures won't be at summer levels, but it may have a summery feel for the second weekend of Jazz Fest as we make it to middle and upper 80s with some humidity.
