New Orleans is headed for another hot Sunday, with generally dry conditions and temperatures in the 90s. Afternoon and evening storms are possible Monday before mostly dry weather returns.
Sunday Brings Sunshine And Stifling Heat
The National Weather Service forecast calls for generally dry conditions Sunday, with temperatures from 90 to 95 degrees and light winds. Humidity will keep the morning feeling muggy, while Sunday night stays warm, according to the National Weather Service.
Morning errands and outdoor plans should be more comfortable than the afternoon, when the heat is strongest. Water, shade and breaks from direct sun are still good ideas, even without an official heat advisory.
Monday Offers A Small Shot At Storms
Monday remains above normal, with afternoon and evening showers or thunderstorms possible. Most locations should stay dry.
That is a narrower storm window than the broader rain chance described in Hoodline's weekend forecast. Tuesday may bring isolated to scattered afternoon convection, though most areas should remain dry, with highs in the low to mid-90s.
Late Week Finally Takes The Edge Off
Wednesday stays hot, with temperatures in the low to mid-90s and isolated to scattered convection possible. Thursday through Saturday remain in the low to mid-90s, though Friday may bring only a small decrease in the heat.
Overnight lows remain warm, with most areas likely staying above 70 degrees. A more persistent northeast-to-east flow may develop by the middle to latter part of the week.
No Alerts Are Posted For New Orleans
No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for the New Orleans area. For now, the forecast favors hot afternoons, warm nights and mostly dry conditions, with Monday's limited storm chance the main interruption to the sunny pattern.
