This time of year can be the hottest in Louisiana, but this week the state is receiving relief from a rare mid-summer cold front cutting humidity and bringing north Canadian air into the bayou state. State Climatologist Barry Keim says you can expect high temps in the mid to upper 80s.
Cut 9 (07) “…so truly refreshing outside.”
Keim advises everyone not to waste this nice weather and find an excuse to get outside.
