Residents can expect a mostly cloudy night with lows hovering around 74 degrees, and an east wind blowing at 10 to 15 mph, gusts could reach as high as 25 mph.

is for minor coastal flooding, expected to occur from 9 PM Saturday to 10 AM CST Sunday. The advisory targets areas of southeast Louisiana and southern Mississippi, with a forecasted water rise up to 1 foot above normally dry ground. “Flooding of lots, parks, and roads with only isolated road closures expected,” the NWS warns. Those traveling through these areas are advised to allot additional time for potential delays, and residents should take measures to safeguard any flood-prone property.
Looking forward to Veterans Day, there is a 20 percent chance of showers amid partly sunny conditions, with a high near 77 degrees. Northeast winds will stir at around 5 mph, signaling a reprieve before returning to a mostly sunny Tuesday. The subsequent midweek forecast mentions a slight chance of showers on both Wednesday and Wednesday night, before giving way to a sunny Thursday with a high near 74 degrees.
As the Coastal Flood Advisory comes into play,
NWS New Orleans
advises that extra caution should be taken, especially in the designated advisory areas. While only minor impacts are expected, the reminder stands clear: do not attempt to maneuver around barricades or traverse waters of uncertain depth. As the Southeast weather pattern waxes volatile, vigilance and preparedness seem to be the prudent course.
