Another pleasant day in the ArkLaTex

SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) - Happy Monday and happy May! Warmer days are ahead and we’ll be bordering on hot with more humid conditions by the weekend. We’ll get a few days to dry out after last week’s soaker, but look for more rain to return this weekend.

Skies will stay clear tonight with temperatures falling back into the 40s to around 50.

A gradual warming trend will begin on Tuesday with temperatures climbing into the low-80s for many under a mostly sunny sky.

Looking ahead to midweek and beyond, a summerlike pattern will set up across the ArkLaTex with a southwest flow aloft and southerly winds at the surface. This will bring very warm and increasingly humid conditions, especially by the end of the week. By Thursday and Friday, highs will be in the mid to upper 80s but it could feel like the 90s with the higher humidity. This warm and humid pattern will likely continue into the upcoming weekend as well! This will also bring a more active pattern with daily storm chances beginning Friday and lasting through the weekend.
