Lake Charles, La. – Clear skies and hot afternoons will dominate across southwest Louisiana and southeast Texas through midweek, but rain chances make a comeback late in the week. Temperatures will climb into the upper 80s and low 90s each day, with little relief from humidity.
According to the National Weather Service in Lake Charles, dry conditions will persist through Wednesday, keeping storm activity out of the region. That changes Thursday, when isolated showers and thunderstorms could develop across portions of central and southwest Louisiana, as well as neighboring southeast Texas.
Daytime highs from Beaumont to Lafayette are expected to push 90 degrees, while nighttime lows hold in the upper 60s to low 70s. Drivers and outdoor workers should prepare for heat and strong sun exposure early this week. Hydration and sun protection remain essential.
By Thursday, a 10–20% chance of rain could briefly interrupt the dry stretch, with additional storms possible into the weekend. The weather service notes more updates may be issued as the storm risk becomes clearer.
