    LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - Rain chances will continue to be a little lower as we head through our Thursday afternoon with only isolated showers and storms. On one side, the good news is that we can begin to dry out a little, but the downside will be the heat and humidity that will build through the next few days. We’ll continue to see a mixture of sun and clouds as we head throughout our Thursday as temperatures are heading back into the lower 90s.

    LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - Thankfully we are tracking a quiet start to our Wednesday and that continues partially into the afternoon as storm coverage remains more isolated. We’ll track more sunshine mixing with a few clouds as we head through the afternoon and evening, which will allow temperatures to climb into the upper 80s and lower 90s.

    LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - Finally, some better news in terms of rain and storms chances as they remain more scattered in nature for our Tuesday. A much quieter start to the day as we’ll see a mixture of sun and clouds at times and that will allow temperatures to warm a little more into the afternoon hours. High temperatures today top out in the upper 80s to near 90 degrees, but couple the heat and humidity, it will allow for some of those showers and storms to develop.

    LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - Make sure to keep the rain gear around as we start of the week as periods of showers and storms are set to move through Southwest Louisiana. Unfortunately, the pattern we are in looks to linger as we continue to see a weakness in the ridge of high pressure allowing daily rain chances to continue. We’ll still see a mixture of clouds and sunshine at times, but this will help to fuel showers and storms with the humidity we have in place.

    LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - While we got a ice break from showers and storms overnight, our next round is set to move in mid-morning for our Friday. Most areas are starting off partly cloudy, but we can expect an increase in cloud cover through the morning, which will lead to more showers and storms. Some of the rain could be locally heavy as well, especially along and south of Interstate-10, where a flood watch remains in place until 7 p.m. Saturday.
