Louisiana – Residents across Shreveport, Caddo Parish and the surrounding Ark La Tex region can expect several days of pleasant fall weather before temperatures take a noticeable turn downward.
According to the National Weather Service, Shreveport's extended outlook shows mostly dry conditions through the middle of the week, with afternoon highs gradually climbing into the upper 70s.
Shreveport Downtown Airport reported 54 degrees early Sunday morning, Nov. 8, with partly cloudy skies and calm winds.
Temperatures are expected to reach approximately 70 degrees Sunday afternoon.
Warm November Weather Builds Through Wednesday Monday brings mostly sunny skies and a high near 71 degrees.
Temperatures fall toward 51 degrees Monday night, offering another cool but comfortable evening.
Tuesday continues the warming trend, with mostly sunny skies and temperatures reaching approximately 74 degrees.
By Veterans Day, Wednesday, Nov. 11, afternoon temperatures could climb to 77 degrees.
That makes Wednesday the warmest day in the current outlook.
Residents planning outdoor ceremonies, neighborhood activities or yard cleanup should find favorable conditions during the afternoon.
For now, widespread precipitation is not expected.
Rain Chance Arrives Before Temperatures Drop The first meaningful change appears Wednesday night.
The National Weather Service indicates a 20% chance of showers before midnight, with temperatures falling toward 52 degrees.
The limited rain probability suggests many neighborhoods could remain dry.
Thursday returns to sunshine, with afternoon temperatures reaching approximately 70 degrees.
However, cooler air becomes more noticeable heading into Friday.
Thursday night temperatures fall toward 43 degrees.
Friday brings sunshine and a high near 64 degrees before readings decline toward 40 degrees Friday night.
That represents a 37 degree difference between Wednesday's projected afternoon high and Friday night's low.
What the Temperature Change Means for Residents The changing temperatures could catch residents off guard after several comfortable afternoons.
Morning commuters along Interstate 20, Interstate 49 and nearby highways should keep a jacket available as colder mornings return.
Gardeners may also want to monitor sensitive outdoor plants as November progresses.
However, the current Shreveport outlook does not indicate freezing temperatures, snow or icy roads through Saturday.
The more immediate concern is the contrast between warm afternoons and increasingly chilly mornings.
