SERVICE. ALL RIGHT. GOOD MORNING. WE ARE WAKING UP TO AN ALERT DAY AS WE’RE WATCHING A SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE MARCHING INTO THE AREA. SO IF YOU’RE WAKING UP, HERE’S THAT LONG LINE WE ARE WATCHING AS WE SPEAK. AND IT HAS BEEN VERY BUSY. HERE’S WHAT’S GOING ON SO FAR. RIGHT NOW YOU CAN SEE THIS LINE HERE JUST ON THE OTHER SIDE OF TANGIPAHOA PARISH IS 55. RIGHT HERE YOU CAN SEE A LOT OF LIGHTNING HAS BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH THIS. SOME VERY STRONG WINDS. WIND REPORTS ALL THE WAY UP TO 90MPH. THEN I DO WANT TO SHOW YOU WHAT ELSE IS HAPPENING JUST NEAR INTERSTATE TEN. SAINT GABRIEL ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT PORT VINCENT. SO NOT EXPECTED TO ARRIVE NEAR 55. AT LEAST THE STRONGEST LINE HERE FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 30 MINUTES, TO A LITTLE LESS THAN AN HOUR FROM THAT. BUT YOU’RE ALREADY STARTING TO SEE THE HEAVIEST OF THAT MARCHING INTO THE AREA AS WE SPEAK. SOME PORTIONS OF TANGIPAHOA PARISH NOW UNDER SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING. SO THAT’S GOING TO INCLUDE KENTWOOD, TANGIPAHOA, LUCHER, ROSELAND, ALL THE WAY DOWN TO HAMMOND, ALL THE WAY UP TO KENTWOOD. AS OF RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE OF SOME VERY STRONG STORMS THAT ARE MARCHING IN. HERE’S WHAT’S GOING ON. THE LATEST TIMING OF IT. STILL, THIS IS LINING UP PRETTY NICELY. HEAVIEST OF IT’S 7 A.M., BUT WATCH WHAT HAPPENS. 8 A.M. RIVER PARISHES. PARISHES IS NOW YOUR TURN. COVINGTON LIKELY SEEING THE HEAVY RAIN AND TWO SLIDELL. YOU’RE RIGHT THERE ON THE EDGE AS WE GET TO 9 A.M. SO BETWEEN 8 AND 9, THAT’S WHEN THAT HEAVIER LINE WILL START TO CONTINUE TO MOVE THROUGH. GOING TO BE INTO THE NEW ORLEANS AREA. SLIDELL HOUMA ALL THE WAY DOWN. THAT WILL CONTINUE TO MARCH THROUGH AS WELL. SO IT’S WHEN THERE WE COULD SEE SOME VERY STRONG WINDS. A TORNADO WARNINGS COULD LIKELY POP UP. SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNINGS WILL DEFINITELY POP UP FOR US ONCE WE GET TO 11 A.M. A LOT OF IT JUST NOW TO THE SOUTH OF NEW ORLEANS. BUT YOU CAN SEE ON THE TAIL END YOU’RE LOOKING AT GRAND ISLE BOOTHVILLE 11 A.M. TO NOON. THEN WE FINALLY DO START TO SEE SOME CLEARING FOR THE AFTERNOON. THERE IS A CHANCE THAT, YEAH, WE COULD SEE A POP UP THUNDERSTORM OR TWO, BUT THE MAIN EVENT THAT’S GOING TO BE THIS MORNING ALREADY STILL LOOKING AT A LEVEL TWO AND A LEVEL THREE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER. AS OF RIGHT NOW, FLASH FLOODING. THAT’S ALSO A RISK FOR US TO A QUICK 1 TO 3IN OF RAIN AS THAT HEAVY RAIN IS MOVING THROUGH. SO EXPECT THAT TO BE A POSSIBILITY. BUT IN THE MEANTIME, A LOT OF US, AS WE GET STARTED WITH OUR MORNING COMMUTE GOING TO BE JUST FINE, YOU’RE GOING TO AVOID THE STORMS NOW. IT’S AFTER EIGHT, AFTER NINE WHEN A LOT OF YOU WILL START TO SEE THAT RAIN. SO GETTING IT STARTED THOUGH, YOU’RE GOING TO HEAD OUT TO WORK AND SCHOOL THIS MORNING. LOOKING AT THE 70S AS OF RIGHT NOW. SO IT IS VERY MILD. IT’S ALSO MUGGY. MY DEW POINTS ARE INTO THE 70S. SO ARE THEIR TEMPERATURES TOO. WE COULD BE DEALING WITH A LITTLE BIT OF FOG AS SOON AS THE STORMS DO ROLL THROUGH FOR US. IN THE MEANTIME, JUST KNOW IT’S A WARM START. GOING TO BE ANOTHER WARM DAY FOR US TOO. WINDS WILL ALSO BE A BIG FACTOR AS WELL. EXPECT WIND GUSTS UP TO ABOUT 25 30MPH FOR TODAY. THEN, AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO THE REST OF THE DAY AGAIN, I’D HAVE THE RAIN GEAR WITH YOU. ONCE WE GET TO THE AFTERNOON. LIKELY WON’T NEED IT. YOU SHOULD BE FINE. HIGHS WILL BE INTO THE LOWER 80S. COULD HAVE SOME MID 80S ON THE NORTH SHORE, SO TEMPERATURES WARMING UP THEN FOR TONIGHT. LOOKING AT A VERY MILD NIGHT AHEAD. GOT TO 60 FOR EVERYBODY. COUPLE UPPER 50S THOUGH ON THE NORTH SHORE. HERE’S A LOOK AT THE REST OF THE FORECAST FOR YOU. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT MORE 80S IN YOUR FORECAST. WE CAN GET EVEN WARMER AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. VERY CLOSE TO
