Warm days ahead with only limited rain chances

SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) - Happy Wednesday! The forecast remains in a holding pattern with little day-to-day changes expected through the holiday weekend. Afternoons will be warm, but not too hot. Rain chances stay slim with only some limited chances for a few showers.

Skies will clear out overnight. We’ll be mild again with temperatures eventually dropping to the mid-60s.

Thursday and Friday look warm with highs both days in the mid to upper 80s. A pop-up shower is possible Thursday, but the chances for rain are only sitting at 10%.

A weak cold front will push south across the ArkLaTex as we kick off the holiday weekend but this front will come through dry and we won’t see any big temperature drop behind it. What this front will bring is some very dry air for this time of year with humidity levels dropping even more throughout the weekend. Overall the weekend forecast is looking ideal for outdoor activities with tons of sunshine, highs in the mid to upper 80s, and low humidity! By Memorial Day we could hit 90 with a slim 20% chance of a shower.

Looking ahead to next week, our winds will gradually switch to the south and this will bring a slow increase in the humidity and storm chances by Tuesday and Wednesday.
