We can be reached at (985) 649-0357 if you have questions or concerns with this forecast. .DISCUSSION... Fire weather concerns are limited as moisture continues to move back into the area leading to gradually increasing rain chances. Showers and thunderstorm activity will be lowest this afternoon and Tuesday, becoming more area-wide Wednesday through the weekend. Over the next 7 days forecast rainfall totals vary from 4 to 7 inches across northwestern areas to less than an inch for extreme southeast Louisiana and much of the Mississippi coast. For most of the area, for most of the week, minimum humidities are likely to be 60 percent or higher every day. 1) Please update on the probability of fog overnight. Not seeing any strong indications for fog Tuesday morning. Can't rule out some patchy/light ground fog, but the chance of dense fog is very low. .REST OF TODAY...
