Shreveport, LA – Rain and thunderstorm chances are expected to increase throughout Sunday across northwest Louisiana and the broader ArkLaTex region, with the highest coverage expected later in the day.
According to the US National Weather Service in Shreveport, storm chances will be greatest across the western half of the region, including areas near the Texas-Louisiana border. Rain probabilities in these locations range from 60% to over 70%, while eastern areas, including parts of northeast Louisiana, may see lower chances closer to 20% to 40%.
Temperatures Sunday are forecast to remain warm despite the incoming storms, with highs ranging from the mid-70s to mid-80s. Cities like Shreveport and Bossier City are expected to reach the low-to-mid 80s before storms become more widespread in the afternoon and evening hours.
Forecasters warn that while many storms will remain scattered, a few could become strong, bringing brief heavy rainfall, lightning, and gusty winds. The greatest risk for stronger storms appears to be west of the I-49 corridor, where moisture and instability will be higher.
Drivers should be prepared for changing road conditions, especially during peak travel times later Sunday. Reduced visibility and slick roads may lead to slower commutes in affected areas.
Residents are encouraged to monitor local weather updates and have a way to receive alerts if conditions worsen.
