WEATHERWISE DURING JUNE OF 2020 IN SHREVEPORT AND BOSSIER CITY,
LOUISIANA, WE RECORDED SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES WITH
SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL RAINFALL.
JUNE OF 2020 OBSERVED QUIET WEATHER CONDITIONS WITH NO SEVERE
WEATHER NOR FLOODING. WITH THAT SAID, THE MONTH ENDED WITH A BIT OF
AN UNUSUAL FLOURISH. DURING THE FINAL WEEKEND OF THIS JUNE (JUNE 27
AND 28), AREA OBSERVERS NOTED A HAZY, OCHRE, COLORED SKY, COURTESY
OF A PLUME OF DUST ORIGINATING FROM THE AFRICAN SAHARA DESERT. THIS
DUST PLUME ADVECTED WESTWARD ACROSS THE ENTIRE TROPICAL ATLANTIC
OCEAN INTO THE GULF OF MEXICO DURING THE FOURTH WEEK OF JUNE WITH
THE ARKLATEX REGION AND NORTHEAST LOUISIANA OBSERVING REDUCED
VISIBILITIES DURING THE JUNE FINAL WEEKEND. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS
DURING THAT WEEKEND ALSO WASHED THE DUST FROM THE ATMOSPHERE AND
DEPOSITED IT ONTO AREA BUILDINGS AND OUTSIDE VEHICLES.
ALSO AT MONTH'S END, A DEVELOPING STRONG MID AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGE
RESULTED IN A PRONOUNCED WARMING SPELL. THE OVERNIGHT LOW
TEMPERATURE DURING JUNE 30TH ONLY RECEDED TO 80 DEGREES AND BROKE
THE PREVIOUS DAILY WARMEST LOW TEMPERATURE RECORD OF 79 DEGREES SET
DURING 1983.
