LAFAYETTE, La. (KLFY) – Showers and storms have ended for the day and quiet weather settles in for the night. Temperatures will drop into the 70s as high humidity settles back in. Sunday will start out dry but storms develop around lunchtime and slowly move across the area through the afternoon. This could cause localized flood concerns again, so be aware that if you come across floodwaters, find an alternative route!
While Memorial Day looks mostly dry and hot, the same can’t be said for the rest of the week as the weather pattern stalls with multiple storm systems moving through each day. At times, this rain could be heavy and cause flooding. Tuesday through Friday could see between two and five inches of rain fall across most of Acadiana and a low-end severe threat, mainly for large hail and gusty winds, will exist through Friday.
Next weekend looks drier as finally a front looks to slide south of the coast pushing most of the moisture away from the area. While afternoon storms will still be possible, we should see more dry times than wet which will allow temperatures to climb back to near 90 degrees.
