Lake Charles, LA – A relatively dry air mass will dominate Louisiana’s weather through the weekend, maintaining hot temperatures and minimal rain chances. This weather pattern is expected to keep conditions dry, with no heat hazards anticipated due to the relatively low humidity.
However, a shift is expected by Sunday, when increasing moisture and humidity will raise the likelihood of rain. By Monday, the region could experience more humid conditions and a higher probability of scattered showers.
According to the National Weather Service in Lake Charles, the tropical outlook remains calm over the Atlantic. A large dry air mass and dust are moving across the main development region of the Atlantic Ocean, keeping tropical cyclone formation unlikely for the next seven days.
As Louisiana enters the peak of hurricane season, weather patterns will likely change. The Global Tropical Hazard Outlook indicates a possible increase in tropical cyclone activity by the end of August and early September. Residents are advised to monitor updates as the weekend approaches, particularly for any developments in rain chances on Sunday and Monday.
