Shreveport, Louisiana – A strong cold front could bring severe thunderstorms Sunday afternoon and evening before freezing temperatures arrive early next week across northwest Louisiana.
According to the National Weather Service in Shreveport, quiet weather is expected Saturday, but conditions may change quickly Sunday as storms develop ahead of the approaching front.
Forecasters say strong to severe thunderstorms are possible Sunday afternoon and evening, though specific storm threats have not yet been fully detailed. Gusty winds and heavy rain are possible as the front pushes through the Ark-La-Tex region.
Following the front, temperatures are expected to drop sharply across the area.
The National Weather Service forecast shows morning temperatures near or below freezing Monday and Tuesday, with lows potentially falling into the upper 20s to mid-30s across parts of the region.
Daytime temperatures early next week are expected to be much cooler than the weekend, with highs only reaching the upper 40s to low 50s Monday before gradually warming later in the week.
By Wednesday, conditions are expected to improve with sunny skies and highs returning to the low to mid-70s across the Shreveport area.
The shifting weather pattern could affect Sunday evening travel and outdoor plans, followed by potential cold weather impacts for plants, pets, and early morning commuters early next week.
Residents are encouraged to monitor updated forecasts from the National Weather Service Shreveport office as the cold front approaches.
