Louisiana skies hang thick and gray over Shreveport late this morning as scattered showers move across Caddo Parish. Wet pavement reflects brake lights along I-20, and light west winds near 10 to 15 mph keep the air feeling damp and cool. If you’re heading out before midday, expect slick roads and occasional light rain.
According to the National Weather Service in Shreveport, showers continue through late morning with an 80 percent chance of precipitation. Temperatures rise to 67 degrees today under mostly cloudy skies. Winds remain out of the northwest at 10 to 15 mph before easing later.
Across northwest Louisiana and into northeast Texas, the broader system keeps conditions unsettled for now. While severe weather risk stays limited locally, steady showers may reduce visibility at times. Allow extra stopping distance and watch for ponding on lower stretches of I-220 and U.S. 71.
Clouds break tonight, and calmer air settles in. Washington’s Birthday turns sunny with highs near 71 degrees. By Tuesday, temperatures jump to 76 under partly sunny skies. Wednesday pushes close to 80 degrees with a mix of sun and clouds. That’s a sharp February warmup.
President’s Day week trends warmer than normal, with highs hovering near 80 through midweek before slightly cooler air arrives late week. The 6–10 day outlook signals above-average temperatures across the South, bringing early spring vibes to Louisiana. Even so, brief damp spots on bridges can turn slick around sunrise when cooler air lingers.
If you’re driving across Shreveport or into Bossier City today, expect improving conditions by midafternoon. Are you seeing breaks in the clouds yet?
