Unseasonably hot and humid conditions will continue into next week. There will only be a few afternoon thunderstorms to break the heat each day. Normal late August highs are 91-92 across the area, so this is a bit unusual. Maybe some relief by the end of next week. #lawx #mswx

Boaters be aware there are multiple storms moving into Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas. These storms are producing gusty winds and have the potential to produce large hail. Seek shelter or move to safe harbor! #lawx

[NWS New Orleans @NWSNewOrleans]

4:45p - Scattered showers and storms are still moving westward across the area, mainly across the SE LA coast, Pearl River County, and Baton Rouge. Main threats with these storms are brief gusty winds and heavy rainfall. Don’t drive through flooded roads!

[Hurricane Tracker App @hurrtrackerapp]

Development in the eastern Atlantic is looking increasingly possible, with most forecast models now showing at least some weak tropical development within the next 7 days. We expect the NHC may soon highlight this area with a low chance of formation.

At this time, any system that develops is expected to remain relatively weak, but conditions and model trends will continue to be monitored closely. No immediate threat to land.
