BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) – A “dry” cold front will sweep through the local area this evening. This front will bring a surge of colder air through South Louisiana. Temperatures this afternoon will get slightly above normal, but then we will be below normal through the rest of the week. Be ready for a cold Thursday as lows dip down into the mid 30°s and highs struggle to reach the low 50°s. Add in breezy winds at times and it will shape up to be the coldest day we’ve seen so far this fall/winter season.
The mercury will continue to fall overnight and a brief/light freeze is forecast across the vast majority of the WAFB viewing area Friday morning.
