Shreveport, Louisiana – Summer refuses to back down in northwest Louisiana. Shreveport is entering its hottest stretch of September yet, with daily highs soaring into the mid-90s by Wednesday, no rain in the forecast, and increasing concern about outdoor fire danger.
According to the National Weather Service, Shreveport will climb to 85°F on Monday, then heat up fast — reaching 94°F by Thursday under relentless sunshine and dry air. Overnight lows will barely dip below 70°F by midweek, providing little relief during the overnight hours.
NOAA’s 6–10 day outlook confirms what residents are already feeling: below-normal precipitation is forecast for the Ark-La-Tex region through at least Friday, September 12, with no organized rain systems on the horizon. Dry ground, low humidity, and steady breezes will create a favorable environment for grass fires in open areas of Caddo, Bossier, and De Soto parishes.
Outdoor burning is discouraged, and residents should avoid leaving vehicles or equipment parked on dry grass. This pattern shows no sign of breaking until at least early next week.
