NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NEW ORLEANS LA
536 AM CDT TUE MAR 24 2026
DISCUSSION
A FRONT CONTINUES TO DRIFT SOUTH ACROSS THE AREA WITH DRIER AIR
SLIDING IN BEHIND IT. THE FRONT WILL STALL NEAR THE COAST LATER
TODAY BUT THE DRIER AIR WILL BE SHORT LIVED AS HIGH PRESSURE
BECOMES REESTABLISHED TO THE NORTHEAST WITH RETURN FLOW SETTING
BACK UP. MOISTURE WILL SLOWLY RETURN, HOWEVER, WITH AFTERNOON
HIGHS EXPECTED TO CLIMB HIGHER FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE WEEK
THOSE MIN RH VALUES MAY EVEN DROP INTO THE UPPER 30 PERCENT RANGE
OVER SOUTHWEST MS AND ADJACENT LOUISIANA PARISHES DURING THE
AFTERNOON HOURS. WINDS WILL BE ON THE LIGHTER SIDE THROUGH THE
FORECAST SO DESPITE THE DRY CONDITIONS, NO MAJOR FIRE WEATHER
CONCERNS EXPECTED.
