Climate Alert Day: Dense fog threat Christmas night time.
Potential for dangerously low visibility once more Christmas night-Friday morning.
CASES REPORTED RIGHT NOW. IT IS A WEATHER ALERT DAY BECAUSE WE HAVE A DENSE FOG ADVISORY THAT’S IN EFFECT UNTIL 10:00 TOMORROW MORNING. HERE WE ARE WRAPPING UP CHRISTMAS, MANY OF US LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEW YEAR. SOME OF US ALREADY LOOKING FORWARD TO MARDI GRAS AND KING CAKE. ELIZABETH, WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF GOOD STUFF COMING UP HERE IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS. WE’LL HAVE YOUR FORECAST FOR NEW YEAR’S EVE IN A MOMENT, BUT OUR LIVE CAMERAS ARE SHOWING US THAT THINGS LOOK GREAT RIGHT NOW. IT’S NOT GOING TO BE THE CASE FIRST THING TOMORROW MORNING. HERE’S THAT DENSE FOG ADVISORY THAT WILL BE IN EFFECT UNTIL 10:00. BUT BETWEEN ABOUT FOUR AND 8 A.M. I THINK THAT’S WHEN THE FOG IS GOING TO BE THE THICKEST TOMORROW. I DON’T THINK THE FOG TOMORROW IS GOING TO BE QUITE AS THICK AS THE FOG WE HAD THIS MORNING. BUT STILL, WHEN YOU GET UP TOMORROW, MAKE SURE TO WATCH WDSU STARTING AT 430 IN THE MORNING. WE HAVE MORE WEATHER CAMERAS THAN ANYONE WITH TRAFFIC CAMERAS AND ANYONE WE CAN SHOW YOU. IF IT’S FOGGY IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD, IT’S DEFINITELY WARM IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD THIS EVENING. WE HAVE 61 IN BOGALUSA, 63. OUR CURRENT TEMPERATURE IN HAMMOND. BEAUTIFUL GRAND ISLE. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU. 66. THE CURRENT TEMPERATURE ON GRAND ISLE RIGHT NOW AT LOUIS ARMSTRONG INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. TEMPERATURE AND DEW POINT GETTING CLOSER. HUMIDITY IN THE 90% RANGE. IT WILL BE CLOSE TO 100% PRETTY SHORTLY. I THINK AFTER ABOUT 3 OR 4:00 OR SO. STILL A SOUTHERLY WIND AT ABOUT SIX MILES PER HOUR. THAT WIND LIKELY GETTING LIGHTER BY TOMORROW MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE STILL CONTROLLING OUR WEATHER HASN’T MOVED MUCH OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS. IT WILL START TO MOVE FARTHER TO THE EAST. WE’RE GOING TO SEE MORE OF A SOUTHERLY WIND. I THINK IT’S GOING TO START TO GET BREEZIER AS WE GET TO THE END OF THE WEEKEND. ONE OF THE REASONS WHY I DON’T THINK THE FOG IS GOING TO BE OVERLY THICK SATURDAY AND ESPECIALLY SUNDAY. NOW HERE’S THE VISIBILITY FORECAST SHOWING US THAT AT ABOUT 4 A.M. ALL RIGHT. VISIBILITY DOWN TO ABOUT A QUARTER OF A MILE IN SOME SPOTS, MAYBE EVEN CLOSE TO ZERO AS WE GET HERE TO ABOUT 6:00 IN THE MORNING BY 8:00, FOG STARTING TO LIFT IN SOME AREAS, BUT STILL, THAT DENSE FOG ADVISORY IS OFFICIALLY IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 A.M. AFTER THAT, THINGS SHOULD BE IMPROVING AS FAR AS THE ROAD CONDITIONS GO. SATURDAY. YES, DOES LOOK FOGGY. MAYBE NOT AS FOGGY, BUT THERE IS A DENSE FOG ADVISORY IN EFFECT FOR FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING AS WELL. KEEP THAT IN MIND IF YOU’RE TRAVELING. WE HAVE A COLD FRONT THAT WE’RE TRACKING AS WE START TO HEAD INTO THE NEW YEAR. IT’S GOING TO BE HERE ON MONDAY. IT’S GOING TO BRING US A PRETTY GOOD CHANCE NOW FOR SHOWERS, MAYBE AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM, MAYBE EVEN SOME LIGHTNING. GUSTY WINDS. IT’S A POSSIBILITY, BUT THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IS NOT EXPECTING ANY. SEVERE WEATHER SHOULD BE RIGHT ON TOP OF US AT ABOUT NOON ON MONDAY, SO WE’LL SEE. SCATTERED SHOWERS. CHANCE FOR RAIN AT 40%. FRONT MOVES THROUGH BY LATE IN THE DAY MONDAY. THEN WE GET CHILLY AS WE GET TO TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY MORNING. ARE YOU GUYS READY? FIVE. FOUR. THREE. TWO. ONE. HAPPY NEW YEAR. AS WE DROP THE BALL IN DOWNTOWN NEW ORLEANS, 48 DEGREES I THINK IS GOING TO BE THE TEMPERATURES. WE CELEBRATE THE NEW YEAR. AND IT’S GOING TO BE A NICE, PRETTY, NICE EVENING. IT’S GOING TO BE A LITTLE ON THE CHILLY SIDE, BUT I THINK SKIES WILL BE CLEAR. THE AIR WILL BE DRY. SHOULD BE COMFORTABLE. DENSE FOG ADVISORY IN EFFECT UNTIL 10:00 TOMORROW MORNING. ONCE WE GET RID OF THE DENSE FOG, IT WILL BE A PLEASANT DAY. PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. ONCE THE FOG IS GONE. HIGH TEMPERATURE TO 75 TO 78 DEGREES. TOMORROW WE STAY WARM THROUGH SUNDAY. FOG IS GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE TO CONSIDER. I THINK IT GRADUALLY GETS LESS FOGGY THROUGH THE WEEKEND. TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. LOOK AT THOSE MORNINGS ON THE NORTH SHORE. 35 TUESDAY, 29 ON WEDNESDAY. BUT THE TEMPERATURES REBOUNDING BY NEW YEAR’S EVE A
