Acadiana Could Experience a Wintry Mix This Morning
Another round of rain and wintry weather is expected to move into and across Louisiana during the day today. Forecasters with the National Weather Service Office in Lake Charles say that freezing temperatures across much of South Louisiana could interact with falling precipitation later this morning. Forecasters speculate that the majority of the precipitation that we will see before 9 am will fall in the form of sleet.
While little or no accumulation of sleet is expected we do anticipate measurable amounts of rain over the next 24 to 36 hours as this system moves through. As of now, the official forecast from the Weather Service keeps chances of frozen precipitation minimal for areas south of Louisiana Highway 28. That s the roadway that bisects the state running from Leesville to Alexandria to Jonesville.

Showers + Storms to Begin Acadiana Workweek
What is that old hit from the brother/sister duo The Carpenters that was all the rage in the 70s? Oh yeah,
Rainy Days and Mondays, we re probably going to have exactly those conditions as we begin this workweek in South Louisiana.
After a very gray and gloomy but not too cold weekend, a cold front will push through the area today. This front will kick off some strong thunderstorms but forecasters with the Storm Prediction Center believe most of the strong storms will be along the I-20 corridor into southern Arkansas.
A Dense Fog Advisory has been posted for Iberia, Vermillion, St. Mary, and Lower St. Martin Parishes to start the day. Once the fog yields to the rising sun we will see mostly cloudy skies across the area. The fog will also dissipate as conditions will become rather breezy across the region as well.
Lake Charles Weather Radar Almost Ready for Service
There are very few times in the life of a piece of technology that we can actually pinpoint the moment it failed. In the case of the Doppler Radar at the National Weather Service Office in Lake Charles, that moment is forever frozen in time. The radar scan shows the eye of dangerous Hurricane Laura approaching the coast of Louisiana.
At that moment the winds of the storm literally tore the radar site apart. In the most post-Hurricane Laura and Hurricane Delta too meteorologists with the National Weather Service Office in Lake Charles have been working to get their new radar system installed, fine-tuned, and ready for work.
