Showers & Storms Likely Today, Heavy Rains Possible

An upper level disturbance moving through Acadiana will increase rain chances to 70% for your Tuesday. Showers and storms look likely as we head through the morning hours with on and off activity possible for the afternoon and evening hours. Some storms today could produce heavy rains, gusty winds, and frequent lightning. The flash flooding and severe threat should remain very low. Much of Acadiana will receive 1-2″ inches of rain today with isolated higher amounts around 3-5″ inches. Isolated areas that receive heavy rain in short period of time could see localized flash flooding. We are not expected a widespread, flash flooding threat for Acadiana with this disturbance.
