Fire Weather Planning Forecast for S MS and SE LA
National Weather Service New Orleans LA
354 AM CDT Fri May 10 2024

.DISCUSSION...

A cold front will move through the area this morning. Northerly
winds will develop behind the front and remain in place through
tonight.  Humidity will also fall to between 30 and 40 percent
behind the front for both today and Saturday. As the high passes
to the north and settles into the east of the area over the weekend,
winds will shift from northerly to the southeast. By next week, a low
pressure system will bring higher rain chances, humidity, and persistent
southeast winds.
