Tuesday: A warm day for all & a dry day for most

SHREVEPORT, La. (KTAL/KMSS) – Sunshine has returned to much of the ArkLaTex on Monday.  While the sunshine won’t last long, it appears that most people in the ArkLaTex will stay dry on Tuesday.  That will change later this week.

Tuesday temperatures:  Tuesday will begin with temperatures that will be above normal. Lows will likely be in the upper 50s to lower 60s.  It will stay rather warm despite the return of lots of clouds.  Highs on Tuesday will return to the low to middle 80s.

Rain is possible on Tuesday, but unlikely!  Futurecast shows that we will see clouds gradually spread from south to north on Monday night.  Tuesday will be a mostly cloudy day over most of the ArkLaTex.  It is possible that we could see a few isolated showers, but most of the area will stay dry.  Rain could increase Tuesday evening after sunset over the southern quarter of the area. The rain will increase on Tuesday night and will stay somewhat likely from Wednesday through Friday.

Long-range outlook: Your 10-day forecast shows that showers and thunderstorms are likely from Wednesday through Friday.  We should see much less rain this weekend and early next week before the threat of storms returns by the end of next week.  Temperatures won’t be changing that much during the period as highs will mainly be in the 80s, with 90 possible by the end of the weekend.  Overnight lows most nights will be in the 60s.
