Louisiana — Warm air settles in early, and the calm sky feels almost too quiet. By afternoon, the sun takes control, pushing temperatures quickly upward.

Shreveport climbs into the mid-80s today, delivering a strong early-season heat signal.

It feels more like early summer than spring.

Skies stay mostly sunny through the day, and winds remain light. That combination allows heat to build steadily, especially on pavement and open fields.

If you’re heading out, expect a warm, dry stretch through the afternoon. Keep water nearby and dress for rising temperatures.

Conditions stay quiet into the evening.

Temperatures ease slowly after sunset, settling into the low 60s with a calm and comfortable feel. Outdoor plans remain in good shape tonight.

Saturday keeps the pattern going.

Sunshine dominates again, with highs pushing the mid-80s. The air stays stable, and rain chances remain very low.

But the shift begins Sunday.

Clouds increase by afternoon, and a few showers may develop. By evening, thunderstorms become more likely, with rain chances climbing toward 50%.

Meteorologists are now tracking a developing system pulling Gulf moisture northward. That setup supports stronger storms late Sunday into early Monday.

If you’re traveling along I-20 Sunday night, expect wet roads and reduced visibility. Plan extra time and stay alert for sudden downpours.

Monday doesn’t fully clear out.

A few leftover showers or storms remain possible, especially early, before partial sunshine returns later in the day.

By Tuesday, the heat builds again with highs nearing the upper 80s and only isolated rain chances.
