WDSU FIRST WARNING WEATHER NOW. ANOTHER HOT AND HUMID DAY. STORMS A LITTLE BIT FEWER IN COVERAGE, AS WE FOUND IN THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS. GOT ANOTHER DAY OF STORMS, BUT I’M REALLY FINDING SOME DAYS AHEAD. WE’RE NOT GOING TO FIND AS MANY STORMS, AND THAT’S GOING TO BE FRIDAY AND LEADING INTO THE WEEKEND. WE’RE GOING TO START WITH REAL TIME TEMPERATURES THERE. WE’RE STILL INTO THE 80S. GOT SOME 70S ALREADY TO THE NORTH SHORE WHERE IT HASN’T BEEN TOO AWFULLY BAD IN THIS PARTICULAR FORECAST.

BRITTNEY VERNER REPORTING. A LITTLE BIT OF AN AUDIO DIFFICULTY, BUT NOW WDSU FIRST WARNING WEATHER. DOPPLER RADAR. LOOK AT THAT. SEVERE STORMS HEADED RIGHT TOWARDS OMAHA. THAT’S WHERE WE’RE GOING TO START TONIGHT. I KNOW IF YOU’RE WATCHING THE GAME, YOU’RE PROBABLY NOT WATCHING THE NEWSCAST, BUT THOSE WATCHING THIS NEWSCAST, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. LSU I’M GOING TO PUT THE STORM TRACKER AT ABOUT 20, 25MPH FROM AT LEAST THOSE FIRST LIGHTNING STRIKES, BECAUSE THEY GET WITHIN TEN MILES.

IRAQ FOR ANY REASON. YOU SEE, IT’S A WDSU FIRST WARNING WEATHER IMPACT DAY. WE’VE GOT A FLOOD ADVISORY FOR MANY PARTS OF THE CITY THAT GOES UNTIL 1130. SO AS LONG AS THAT’S UP, WE’LL HAVE OUR IMPACT IN EFFECT. BUT THAT SHOULD GO AWAY HERE IN A LITTLE BIT AS WE’VE STILL GOT SOME POCKETS OF SHOWERS WE’RE TRACKING. SO LET’S START WITH WDSU FIRST WARNING WEATHER DOPPLER RADAR. AND THAT’S WHERE I’LL SHOW YOU THE POCKETS OF HEAVIER RAIN THAT’S THERE.
A Flood Advisory is in effect until 11:30 pm for much of the New Orleans metro

ALL RIGHT. AND NOW IT’S TIME FOR ANOTHER CHECK ON OUR FIRST WARNING. WEATHER TODAY IS THE WEATHER IMPACT DAY BECAUSE WE’RE EXPECTING TO SEE MORE STORMS JUST LIKE YESTERDAY. YOU KNOW, WE’RE SO LUCKY TO HAVE OUR RADAR HERE AT WDSU BECAUSE WE’RE ACTUALLY ABLE TO LOOK AT THINGS NOT THAT ARE JUST HAPPENING NOW, BUT LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY. AND I REALLY WANT TO USE SOME OF OUR STREET LEVEL MAPPING TO SHOW YOU, BECAUSE I KNOW WE HAD A FLOOD ADVISORY LATE IN THE AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING.

I DON’T SEE ANY CHANGE FOR A WHILE. SO YOU SEE THE HIGH REGENCY CAM BEHIND ME. A FEW OF THOSE CUMULUS CLOUDS GOING TO SHOW YOU WHERE THE STORMS ARE AT THIS TIME. AND REALLY, IT’S TANGIPAHOA PARISH AS WE’VE HAD A LOT OF BUSY SEASON GOING FROM SEVERE SEASON TO FLOOD SEASON.

CONSIDERATION. AS YOU CAN SEE, NO WEATHER IMPACT DAY WE’VE ENDED THAT EARLIER IS. AT LEAST THE THREAT FROM ANY MORE STRONG SEVERE STORMS OVER THE METRO AND MANY PLACES IN SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA HAS DONE. YOU KNOW THAT PONTCHARTRAIN CONSERVANCY CAM, WE LOOKED AT A LITTLE BIT LATER, EARLIER WAS GREAT. IT LOOKED ACTUALLY WAS THESE STORMS. IT LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE A LOT CLOSER. BUT NO, THESE WERE THE STORMS THAT WE WERE SEEING FROM THE PONTCHARTRAIN CONSERVANCY.

YOU CAN SEE WDSU FIRST WARNING WEATHER IMPACT DAY. THE REASON OF WHICH YESTERDAY I TALKED ABOUT THAT WE COULD HAVE MORE STORMS MIGHT FIRE UP EARLIER IN THE DAY, BUT THAT DIDN’T HAPPEN AND HELD OFF TILL LATER IN THE DAY. BUT LOOK AT THE STORM COVERAGE. THAT’S WHY WE HAD A 90% CHANCE OF STORMS TODAY. ALSO A LOW RISK THAT THEY COULD BE SEVERE.

YOU CAN SEE IT’S AN IMPACT DAY BECAUSE THERE’S BEEN THE THREAT FOR STRONG, POSSIBLY SEVERE STORMS. AND WE’RE TRACKING A CLUSTER OF STORMS RIGHT NOW THAT’S DEVELOPING OVER THE NORTH SHORE. AND THAT’S WHERE THE GREATEST RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER IS. AND THAT’S GOING TO BE THIS LEVEL TWO RISK OF SEVERE STORMS THAT EXTENDS IN THROUGH TONIGHT. AND WE’LL GET TO THAT IN JUST ONE SECOND.
