Xavier males’s basketball heading again to NAIA match
SO WE’LL SEE. BUT YEAH, IT WAS A GREAT TIME. IT WAS A REALLY GOOD TIME. PRETTY COOL. YEAH. WELL, AS FAR AS OUR WEATHER IS CONCERNED, ALSO LOOKING PRETTY GOOD TOO. IF YOU’RE GOING TO THE PARADES THIS SUNDAY, JUST KEEP AN EYE TO THE SKY. WE’RE WATCHING SOME POTENTIAL FOR SOME WET WEATHER. HERE’S WHERE WE STAND RIGHT NOW. BIGGER PICTURE WISE SOUTHEAST WINDS COMING UP FROM THE GULF THAT’S REALLY HELPING TO AID IN A WARM, MOIST AIR MASS ACROSS THE GULF COAST, INCLUDING US HERE IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA. THERE’S SOME SPOTTY SHOWERS MOVING THROUGH THE AREA RIGHT NOW. WATCH OUT FOR SOME HEAVY DOWNPOURS, POSSIBLY SETTING UP FOR YOUR EVENING HOUR COMMUTE, SPECIFICALLY NEAR THE METRO. SO SOMETHING ELSE TO KEEP AN EYE ON. NOW FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. GOING INTO THIS EVENING, WE’RE LOOKING AT MAINLY CLOUDY SKIES AGAIN, A SPOTTY SHOWER, POSSIBLE TEMPERATURES DROPPING INTO THE LOWER 70S OVERNIGHT AND THROUGH TOMORROW MORNING. SO COMING UP THIS WEEKEND WE HAVE MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF THUNDERSTORMS SETTING UP AS A PARADE OF DISTURBANCES EXPECTED TO TRACK ACROSS THE REGION. SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL EVEN AS FAR NORTH AS THE PLAINS, ALONG WITH INCREASING RAIN CHANCES GOING UP HERE ACROSS THE GULF COAST. AND SPEAKING OF THE SEVERE WEATHER RISK, THAT RISK SHIFTS A LITTLE BIT FURTHER TOWARDS THE EAST. COME SATURDAY, THERE’S A LEVEL TWO SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER POSITION TO THE WEST OF US, AND ANOTHER ONE EVEN AS FAR NORTH HERE AS PARTS OF THE NORTHEAST UNITED STATES. HERE FOR US IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA, WE’RE ALSO INCLUDED UNDER THAT SEVERE WEATHER RISK. THAT RISK, THOUGH, IS A LITTLE BIT LOWER. IT’S A LEVEL ONE MARGINAL RISK FOR ALL OF US, INCLUDING SOUTH MISSISSIPPI, TOO. AND AS FAR AS WHAT WE COULD BE LOOKING AT FOR AS FAR AS FLOODING IS CONCERNED, NOT EXPECTED TO BE WIDESPREAD, UNLIKE THE SEVERE WEATHER RISK. BUT YOU SEE PARTS OF THE FAR NORTH SHORE AT LEAST UNDER THAT LEVEL. ONE MARGINAL THREAT OF SOME FLOODING. SO LET’S GO AHEAD AND TIME THINGS OUT STARTING TOMORROW. AND WE SEE WE START OFF WITH MAINLY CLOUDY SKIES. THERE COULD BE A LITTLE BIT OF SOME FOG, SOMETHING ELSE TO KEEP AN EYE ON TOO. VERY PATCHY THOUGH. AND BY 3:00 IN THE DAY, MAYBE A FEW SHOWERS AND A COUPLE OF THUNDERSHOWERS UP TOWARDS THE NORTH SHORE, THEN DIMINISHING BY 8:00 IN THE EVENING. SO NOW WE’LL TAKE YOU INTO SATURDAY. YOU SEE AGAIN, WE START OFF PRETTY CLOUDY, SAME THING. AND THEN WE START TO SEE SOME SHOWERS AND A FEW STORMS UP TOWARDS THE NORTH SHORE. BY 6:00 IN THE DAY. AND THEN WE WATCH FOR THIS STRONGER LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS PUSHING SOUTH INTO THE NORTH SHORE. BY LATE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY. THIS IS MORE THAN LIKELY GOING TO BE OUR SEVERE WEATHER RISK, AND THERE’S SOME TIMING DIFFERENCES RIGHT NOW, WITH SOME OF THE MODELS SHOWING IT COMING IN EARLIER OR LATER. THIS THIS SPECIFIC MODEL SHOWS IT COMING IN MUCH LATER SATURDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY MORNING FOR US TOWARDS THE METRO, AND THEN BY SUNDAY AROUND NOON TO 1:00 WE START TO SEE SOME CLEARING. WE MIGHT BE IN BETTER SHAPE BY THEN, BUT KEEP IT HERE FOR ANY CHANGES THAT COULD TAKE SHAPE. NOW IT LOOKS LIKE A LOT OF THE STORM MODES AS FAR AS THE HAZARDS ARE. LOOKING PRETTY LOW RIGHT NOW. I’M WATCHING FOR THE THREAT OF FLOODING, MAINLY OFF TO THE NORTH OF US, BUT HERE IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA, WE’RE LIKELY GOING TO SEE BETWEEN 1 TO 2IN GOING OVER AT LEAST THE NEXT THREE DAYS. WHEN WE ADD UP ALL THE TOTALS TOGETHER. BUT HEY, THAT’S GOOD NEWS. WE REALLY NEED THE RAIN TOWARDS THE BAYOU AND THE COAST SPECIFICALLY, INCLUDING THE NEW ORLEANS METRO. SEVERE TO EXTREME DROUGHT CONDITIONS CURRENTLY BEING OBSERVED, AND YOU CAN SEE TOWARDS THE NORTH SHORE MODERATE DROUGHT CONDITIONS HERE TOO. SO REALLY YOU CAN TAKE ANY RAIN THAT WE COULD POSSIBLY GET AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES INTO THE MID TO UPPER 70. SOME LOCATIONS LIKE BOGALUSA, FAR NORTH SHORE IN THE LOW 80S. I GOT HIGHS TOMORROW ONCE AGAIN INTO THE LOW 80S. THAT’S GOING TO BE THE TREND GOING FORWARD. OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS. THERE COULD BE SOME COOLING COMING IN THURSDAY, HIGHS DROPPING TO THE MID 70S FROM ANOTHER FRONT EXPECTED TO MOVE IN ALONG WITH SOME MORE CHANCES OF RAIN. BUT GOING INTO THE 11TH THROUGH THE 15TH OF THE MONTH, WE’RE STILL EXPECT TO SEE WELL ABOVE AVERAGE TEMPERATURES GOING FORWARD. AND YOU SEE IT HERE ON THE WDSU FIRST WARNING SEVEN-DAY FORECAST WITH HIGHS MAINLY IN
