Shreveport, Louisiana – Drivers along I-20 and I-49 could hit reduced visibility and ponding water by late Wednesday night as a more active storm pattern snaps back across the ArkLaTex.
According to the National Weather Service in Shreveport, rain and thunderstorms redevelop between Wednesday night and Thursday midday as an upper-level disturbance moves through, followed by another round heading into Easter weekend. Forecasters highlight two key windows: late Wednesday night into Thursday, then again over the weekend as deeper moisture returns.
Across northwest Louisiana, including Bossier City and Greenwood, bursts of heavy rain could slow the Thursday morning commute, especially on elevated roadways and low-lying stretches prone to water buildup. East Texas cities like Marshall and Longview may see similar impacts, while southern Arkansas counties near Texarkana could experience frequent lightning and brief downpours.
Residents should charge devices, avoid flooded roadways, and allow extra travel time during peak rain periods. Outdoor plans late Wednesday and again this weekend may need quick adjustments.
More updates are expected as timing becomes clearer, with additional advisories possible before storms arrive Wednesday night.
