.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Monday night)
Issued at 233 PM CDT Sun Jun 1 2025

Kept some low end PoPs through this afternoon and early evening as
the old frontal boundary creeps northward. So far, most areas have
remained dry but looking at current radar a couple showers have
started to pop up east of Houma. Can`t rule out a chance of these
showers strengthening into a brief thunderstorm, but keeping
numbers low.

Heading into Monday, rain chances are low, ~5-10%, if they exist
at all. However, with the shift to southerly winds on Sunday the
air will feel more humid on Monday. Most areas will also be a
couple to a few degrees higher than Sunday. So, enjoy today before
it feels hot and humid again!

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday through Saturday night)
Issued at 233 PM CDT Sun Jun 1 2025

Surface high pressure to our east will hold through Tuesday
keeping rain chances fairly low, ~15%. Looking further into the
long term period, we likely see a more summertime pattern set back
up as southerly flow returns. By Wednesday, we see PoPs increase
to around 35-45% and remain around that range through the end of
the week.

The GFS past the hour of 220 will be ignored. On a serious note,
today is the first official day of the Atlantic hurricane season
so now is a good time to take a look at your supplies and plans!

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1234 PM CDT Sun Jun 1 2025

All terminals likely to remain VFR through the TAF cycle. A small
chance for some TSRA this afternoon remains in place, however
there is not enough confidence to include it. Some MVFR vis is
possible for northern areas tomorrow morning, mainly MCB, with a
few models showing patchy fog.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 233 PM CDT Sun Jun 1 2025

We are seeing a shift to light onshore flow this afternoon as the
old stalled front is creeping back north slowly. We hold onshore
flow throughout this week with it increasing up to 10-15 knots by
Wednesday. Rain and storm chances increase again towards mid week,
any storms may briefly bring higher winds and wave heights.
