A typical July weather pattern will continue for Acadiana for the foreseeable future with hot and humid conditions accompanied by the daily chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms.

A very weak upper low in the Gulf just south of Louisiana will continue to provide for enough instability to produce plenty of clouds along with better than normal (usually 20-40%) summer rain chances in the days ahead. full details: https://tinyurl.com/yvaf4kfm

Such a tragic weather event in Texas. Many of the missing are young girls who were at a summer camp.

⚡️Bolt from the blue! It does not have to be raining for lightning to strike. Look what Michael Hollinger caught on his security camera in Sherwood.

A few areas of thunderstorms are moving east across Acadiana this afternoon.

A big batch of Saharan dust has settled on our head this morning! Sorry my allergy sufferers, it’ll slowly fade by week’s end.

Our Story

This page was started in August 2011, after I decided I would try and help out with some of the questions that are being asked to many of the TV meteorologist on social media. I do not have a degree in Atmospheric Science or Meteorology, but I did attend two semesters at ULM for that area of study. I am now an advanced trained storm spotter for the National Weather Service. When this page was first started, I was the only one posting updates. A few years ago, I decided to form a spotter group across Acadiana, and bring in more trained spotters to help run the page and to help assist the National Weather Service during severe weather events. My vision for this page is to be an additional source of weather information on a social media platform. We do often give advise, but you should always follow any information from the degreed meteorologist or National Weather Service first. I enjoy spending my time on this page and keeping my weather passion alive.

Thanks
