Shreveport, LA – Morning calm settles over Red River neighborhoods as soft light filters through a thin patch of clouds. The air is cool and still — a gentle pause before several warm, sunny days set in across northwest Louisiana. The National Weather Service in Shreveport reports clear skies through early week, with steady north winds and afternoon highs near 74°F today.
According to meteorologists, Monday and Tuesday will bring ideal autumn weather. Expect bright sunshine, comfortable humidity, and afternoon highs near 80°F. Light southeast breezes return by Monday night, signaling a subtle warmup that should hold through Wednesday. Those planning outdoor work, travel, or early Halloween decorating will find nearly perfect conditions to get ahead before rain chances increase later this week.
By Thursday, clouds begin to filter back in as a weak front approaches from the west. Forecasters expect a 20 to 30 percent chance of showers by late Thursday night into Friday, possibly turning into brief thunderstorms Friday afternoon. Highs remain warm in the upper 70s to near 80°F, but models suggest a slight cooldown behind the front heading into next weekend.
Looking beyond, mild air should linger through Saturday, with patchy sun and a few scattered showers. For now, Shreveport enjoys one of fall’s best stretches — bright skies, easy winds, and that warm-but-not-hot balance before cooler November air makes its move.
