Very warm forecast this week – WAFB

Baton Rouge, La. (Wafb) – Record potential for heat

In the coming days, some record high temperatures appear.

The forecasts are predicted to reach Tuesday by next weekend until next weekend.

At that time, the forecast called for record maximums on Thursday 2/6 and Friday 2/7. Other days are within a degree or two of the binding record high temperatures. The main reason for these temperatures will be the zonal flow up. This is the wind stream from west to east throughout the country holding the cold air, butyl in the Arctic.

With the heat comes a fog

Every time we see a warming trend in winter, the fog usually does not fall behind. The threat to Patchy to thick fog appears daily in the local forecast for the upcoming work/school week. You may want to give yourself a little extra time to the door to take into account the possible fog delays.

Mainly dry weather

Any time violations are likely to go well in the north in the coming days. This will keep the local area mainly dry with a very light chance of rain, existing only on Wednesday afternoon this week.
