Rain remains in the forecast for the last 2 days of Mardi Gras:
Monday (Lundi Gras): A cold front will cross the area, and it'll stall just south of the Coastline. The front will keep scattered showers in the forecast for Monday morning with isolated midday-early afternoon showers. Then, another wave of scattered shower activity is expected by late Monday afternoon...lasting thru the evening.
Fat Tuesday: A warm front will be moving inland...and putting our area in a favorable positon to experience scattered-numerous storms by the afternoon. Yet, periods of rain can be expected throughout the day...so an umbrella is a necessity.
Make sure to watch Meteorologist Kelly Foster & Chief Meteorologist Derek Beasley on Monday for the latest update to the Fat Tuesday forecast.
The rain moves out just in time for Valentine's Day, though. And a Big Cold Snap is looking possible by next weekend.
