WEATHERWISE DURING NOVEMBER 2025, SHREVEPORT RECORDED MUCH ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPERATURES AND NEAR NORMAL RAINFALL. IN FACT, SHREVEPORT RECORDED ITS
SECOND WARMEST NOVEMBER ON RECORD WITH AN AVERAGE MONTHLY TEMPERATURE OF
63.6 DEGREES, WHICH FELL JUST UNDER A DEGREE COOLER THAN THE CURRENT
WARMEST NOVEMBER OF 64.5 DEGREES SET JUST LAST YEAR IN 2024. WHILE
SHREVEPORT RECORDED NEAR (OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL) RAINFALL DURING NOVEMBER,
THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE MONTH WAS DRY, WITH ONLY FOUR RAIN DAYS OBSERVED,
AND 3.42 INCHES OF THE 4.42 INCH MONTHLY TOTAL FALLING ON THE 24TH. THERE
WERE 23 STRAIGHT DAYS FROM OCTOBER 29TH TO NOVEMBER 20TH WHERE NO MEASURABLE
RAIN FELL AT THE SHREVEPORT REGIONAL AIRPORT. DAILY RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURES
WERE TIED ON THE 15TH AND 21ST, AND BROKEN ON THE 17TH, 18TH, AND 19TH.
A DAILY HIGHEST MINUMUM TEMPERATURE RECORD WAS ALSO BROKEN ON THE 19TH WITH
A LOW TEMPERATURE OF 69 DEGREES, SURPASSING THE PREVIOUS RECORD OF 66 DEGREES
SET BACK IN 1950. THE PROLONGED PERIOD OF NEAR RECORD WARMTH AND DRYNESS
THROUGH THE FIRST THREE WEEKS OF THE MONTH LED TO THE U.S. DROUGHT MONITOR
EXPANDING MODERATELY DRY (D1) CONDITIONS FROM NORTHERN CADDO PARISH SOUTH
INTO THE REMAINDER OF CADDO AND ALL OF BOSSIER PARISHES (INCLUDING THE
SHREVEPORT/BOSSIER CITY METROPOLITAN AREAS) BY THE NOVEMBER 20TH UPDATE.

WHILE NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AFFECTED THE SHREVEPORT/BOSSIER CITY AREA
DURING NOVEMBER, STRONG THUNDERSTORMS CONTAINING VERY HEAVY RAINFALL WITH
MEASURED HOURLY RAIN RATES BETWEEN 2.5-3.0 INCHES/HOUR PRODUCED A SWATH OF
3-4+ INCHES OF RAIN IN A COUPLE HOURS TIME, WHICH RESULTED IN WIDESPREAD
FLASH FLOODING ACROSS THE CITIES. MULTIPLE ROADS WERE CLOSED AND NUMEROUS
VEHICLES WERE STALLED IN HIGH WATER.

DURING THE FALL OF 2025 (SEPTEMBER-NOVEMBER), SHREVEPORT RECORDED AN
AVERAGE TEMPERATURE OF 72.5 DEGREES (5.1 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL), WHICH RANKED
AS THE 2ND WARMEST FALL ON RECORD BEHIND 2024 WITH AN AVERAGE TEMPERATURE OF
72.8 DEGREES. BELOW NORMAL RAINFALL WAS ALSO RECORDED IN SHREVEPORT DURING
FALL 2025, WITH A TOTAL OF 8.50 INCHES FALLING (-3.55 INCHES BELOW NORMAL).
WHILE THIS DIDN`T RANK WITHIN THE TOP 30 DRIEST FALLS IN RECORD, THE LONG
DURATION BETWEEN WETTING RAINS COUPLED WITH THE MUCH ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES
DID CONTRIBUTE TO THE EXPANDING DROUGHT CONDITIONS BY MID-NOVEMBER.
