When it comes to writing daily forecasts summer is the ultimate test of stamina. This is especially true when the forecast from one day blends into the next with little to no change. So going on for almost the second week we'll be talking about the possibility of widely scattered showers and storms arriving in the mid morning and continuing on and off into the evening. After a few less showers on Wednesday, we'll be back to pretty decent coverage out there Thursday afternoon.

The showers won't disappear entirely on Wednesday, but there may be a few less than the last couple of days. Rain will be a little more pop up in nature as they won't have the same type of upper level support they've enjoyed the last week. This coming as high pressure out west begins to nudge east, although we won't feel the influence of that ridge until the weekend.

It can't be like this forever. It probably feels like it though and when Tuesday's showers fire back up I'm sure you'll wonder if there will ever be a 24 hour period again without rain. The pattern remains mostly unchanged from last week and for folks in Acadiana that means another round of showers and storms pushing through the area on Tuesday. Similar to the last week this means periods of heavy rain and frequent lightning which could lead to localized pockets of flash flooding.

I've lived in Louisiana long enough now to know that these stretches happen in the summer, when every forecast blends into the next and nothing every changes. I also understand that sometimes this means days of rain. There's nothing wrong with rain, when it's not flooding it's incredibly beneficial and it's certainly better than drought (in my opinion), and my garden as a result has never looked more lush. All that being said, it sure would be nice to just have one day without some showers.
