Louisiana – Cold air lingers across northwest Louisiana this morning, but the grip is already loosening. Jackets stay zipped early, breath shows briefly, and car heaters run a little longer. By afternoon, sunshine begins doing real work.
According to the National Weather Service in Shreveport, temperatures rebound quickly today, climbing from the 30s into the low 60s under clear skies. Winds remain light, allowing rapid warming through midday. Tonight cools back into the 40s, though widespread freezing concerns ease compared to earlier in the week.
Friday delivers a dramatic February shift. Highs surge into the mid-70s across Caddo Parish and nearby communities. Sunshine dominates, roads stay dry, and outdoor activity becomes comfortable again. That warmth briefly relaxes Saturday, with highs closer to the mid-60s, still well above recent averages.
Sunday turns warmer again. Temperatures climb back into the mid-70s with partly sunny skies and light southerly flow. Monday continues the trend, reaching the upper 70s as humidity slowly increases. Drivers may notice morning fog in low-lying areas as warmer air rides over cooler ground.
Looking ahead, NOAA’s 6–10 day outlook favors above-normal temperatures across Louisiana into midweek. Rain chances increase slightly by Tuesday and Wednesday, but no cold air intrusions appear imminent. While winter weather remains active farther north, the southern Plains and Gulf states are firmly trending warmer.
Plan layers early today, lighter clothing by Friday, and stay mindful of quick temperature swings. February can still surprise. Feeling the warmth building already? Tell us how conditions look where you are.
