Monday morning video forecast

Strong winds and storms on the Mardi Gras Day can interrupt some, if not all outdoor activities. Get a way to get weather notifications on Tuesday because the effective weather is in the capital region.

Today & tonight: Monday starts cool and warm in the mid -1970s with deep stalls in the 40s under a mixture of sun and clouds. One or two stray showers can develop, but the general conditions for Lundi grass parades remain dry. The winds will gradually increase during the day and become suspicious of 7 to 17 miles per hour from the southeast until Monday afternoon from the southeast of 7 to 17 miles. The increase in wind speeds continues overnight and in carnival grass when a storm system arrives. Deeps this evening will only fall almost 60 degrees in Baton Rouge.

Mardi Gras – Next Effects: The two big weather stories on Mardi Gras will be wind and storms. Own winds can be felt by everyone, even outside of thunderstorms. Most will also experience storms at some point, some of which could be strong to heavy.

Wind – Mardi Gras all over the south -louisiana was exhibited. The associated bulletin determines the potential for 30-40 miles per hour with gusts of up to 60 miles per hour. This may be an exaggerated, but is a reasonable worst-case scenario. Persistent winds of 20 to 30 miles per hour with gusts in the range of 40+ seem very likely to be windy for themselves. These winds occur inside and outside of thunderstorms.

Top -class vehicles, including Mardi Gras Floats, could become unstable if a gust of wind is caught. Similarly, traveling could be difficult for top -class vehicles. Insolated until scattered power outages are also possible.

Storms – In the afternoon, pointed morning showers become widespread showers and thunderstorms. Lightning will have problems for Mardi Gras parades in the afternoon, whereby morning parades have the best chance to avoid these concerns. In addition, the afternoon storms could be strong to heavy. For areas north of I-12, an “improved” level (3/5) risk was issued, with a “low” risk (2/5) for areas south. Although not every storm is experiencing, remote points – especially north of the Interstate. All heavy dangers (wind, hail, tornados) are on the table.

Mardi Gras will be a day to remain weather -conscious by receiving several types for weather notifications. The Mobile app found here is a great way to immediately become aware of your neighborhood when storm threatens your neighborhood. Make sure notifications are switched on.

Rest of the week: The conditions will quickly improve behind a cold front on Tuesday evening. Expect to wake up on Wednesday morning to clarify the sky. The forecast for activities on Wednesday and the second half of the working week remains calm and mild. The next rain maker will arrive in the capital at the weekend.
