Ashley Renee Good morning everyone and happy Monday. Hopefully you all enjoyed your weekend. The rain cleared out early Saturday morning, but the clouds lingered for the rest of the day until around sunset. We finally saw a little peak of sunshine then. Sunday was a beautiful day! Unfortunately, the nice weather is coming to an end. Tropical moisture will surge northward beginning today. This morning will remain pretty dry, but showers are possible by this evening. There's a slight chance of showers for later today/tonight. Rain chances will increase for Tuesday. Rain chances will be higher for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Estimated rainfall amounts are around 3-5 inches for south Louisiana. These higher rainfall estimates will lead to a flash flooding threat once again. Last week, south Louisiana received a few inches of rainfall. With the grounds still being saturated, this will cause flooding issues. Gusty winds, heavy rain and flooding are all concerns for the second half of this week (more so Wednesday and Thursday). This will all stem from Invest 91L which became Potential Tropical Cyclone Six Sunday afternoon. The system will continue to strengthen as it moves northward through the Gulf. It will likely become tropical storm Francine, but it could strengthen into a Category 1 hurricane too. If the system shifts a little to west, land interaction could inhibit some of its development and intensification. The same goes if there's enough dry air that could filter into the system. Either way, everyone along the Texas and Louisiana coasts need to be prepared for a tropical system. As of 4am Monday morning, PTC 6 has wind speeds of 50 mph and is moving NNW at 5 mph. Our area is split between a marginal risk and a slight risk for flash flooding are in place for Tuesday morning through Wednesday morning. A moderate risk for flash flooding covers most of south Louisiana and central Louisiana from Wednesday morning through Thursday morning. Parts of north Louisiana are under a slight risk and a moderate risk. A marginal risk for severe weather is in place for our area for Wednesday and Wednesday night. Severe thunderstorms, hail, gusty winds and isolated tornadoes are possible. Make sure you and your family have your emergency plan and your go bag ready. This system isn't expected to take long to move through our area. We'll have lower rain chances for Friday and this weekend. Tracking the tropics: Besides Potential Tropical Cyclone Six, there are two other areas to monitor. Invest 92L has a medium chance of developing into a tropical system within the next two days and a high chance within the next seven days. Disturbance 2 has a medium chance of developing into a tropical system over the next seven days. They're not a concern to us at this time since they're in the Atlantic, but it is something to watch. Stay tuned for more tropical updates on air and online. Thanks for watching. ASHLEY RENEE ASHLEY RENEE Ashley Renee Ashley Renee Good morning everyone and happy Monday.
