LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - We saw some scattered showers and storms Tuesday and will likely see a repeat for Wednesday. Wednesday will begin with temperatures in the upper 60s to low 70s, but afternoon highs will top out in the low to mid 80s. By midmorning we will likely begin to see some showers developing and these will blossom into some thunderstorms by the afternoon hours. Any thunderstorms that develop will be capable of producing gusty winds and hail, possibly enough to reach severe levels.

LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - A weak cold front moved through early Tuesday bringing drier air into SWLA. Dry air will allow temperatures to fall quickly overnight. Tuesday night into Wednesday morning lows will drop into 40s and 50s, but even this “cool down” will not last long. Southerly winds return Wednesday and that pushes the humidity up and morning temperatures will remain at or above north through the rest of the week.

LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - Southerly winds return Wednesday and that means a warming trend will begin. Tuesday was a beautiful one with lots of sunshine and that pushed highs into the low 70s in most areas. Clear skies and calm winds will allow temperatures to drop quickly overnight with lows Wednesday morning once again in the 40s, so you’ll probably want a jacket as you head out to work or school.

LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - If you like cooler weather this is your week! Temperatures will be well below normal for the next few mornings. We had cloudy conditions much of our Monday and that kept the afternoon chilly, but those clouds will clear overnight.

LAKE CHARLES, La. (KPLC) - Wind is the big story once again as we head into our Friday with wind gusts in the 30 to 40 mph likely. Much like our Wednesday and Thursday we will see winds Friday in the 35 to 45 mph range at times, so any loose items around the house need to be tied down again or brought inside. Temperatures will still feel more summer-like as highs are back into the middle 80s, but feeling a little warmer with humidity and some afternoon sunshine.
