Sun, Storms, and Sizzle: Friday features a little bit of everything
Friday sees a slow-moving cold front approach the region by the afternoon, which will provide scattered thunderstorms, mainly in the afternoon. Thunderstorms will once again not be moving quickly, and therefore will be capable of producing locally heavy rainfall.
Some of the stronger thunderstorms that pop up will be capable of producing small hail and gusty winds. The Storm Prediction Center has placed our region in a level one marginal risk for severe weather. There will be some dry time between thunderstorms, but it's an unsettled day, especially by the afternoon, with highs near 80 degrees.
Friday evening through midnight, a cluster of thunderstorms will roll through west to east capable of very heavy rain, small hail, and isolated instances of damaging winds. Western counties stand a higher risk of these strong to severe storms while our eastern counties see more of an issue with heavy rain leading to street and flash flooding concerns. While storms will fade into the night, scattered showers remain through pre-dawn Saturday.
Saturday morning dries out for a spell with some sunshine with mix of clouds set up for through the early afternoon. With instability from a near by low grows, isolated showers and downpours a likely into the afternoon. These will be hit and miss variety so outdoor plans are still possible, just keep a keen eye on the sky. Highs for the day are a bit muted with the mid 70s as cloud cover builds for the afternoon.
Saturday evening with a warm front lifting back north, our rain chances grow with widespread rain, some heavy at times, moving back across the region. Temperatures hold steady in the 60s for lows with occasional showers and thunderstorms much of the night.
Sunday sees Saturday's system stall nearby, which means more chances for scattered showers and thunderstorms. There will be breaks in the activity at times, but if you plan on being outside for extended periods Sunday, an umbrella wouldn't be a bad accessory to have! You can always track those downpours that will be popping up in your neighborhood for free with our StormTracker 59 app, which will allow you to zoom down to your area. High temperatures Sunday will once again be in the mid 70s in what promises to be a warm and muggy day once again.
Monday returns the risk for a few scattered storms with another front approaching. As a result, a few scattered thunderstorms are a good bet with highs near 80. There will be plenty of dry time but storms again could produce locally heavy rainfall and perhaps a gusty wind or two in some of the strongest storms. The severe weather threat overall is low.
Tuesday sees yet one more system cross before we begin to dry out midweek. Scattered storms once again can be expected as a result with high temperatures in the upper 70s.
Wednesday finally sees our unsettled pattern break with high pressure pushing into the region, which will usher in drier air. Mostly sunny skies can be expected with high temperatures in the upper 70s.
Thursday provides only an isolated risk for a garden-variety downpour or two with otherwise partly sunny skies and highs in the low 80s.
Looking ahead in your extended forecast, there is no real sign of any big cooldown. Friday features isolated storms but a better chance for storms return Saturday afternoon with a front crossing that will keep the risk for scattered storms continuing into Sunday. High temperatures will be in the low 80s on Friday, with highs near 80 on Saturday before dipping into the upper 70s on Sunday.

Weekend Wx: Mainly dry Saturday & STORMY on Sunday
SHREVEPORT, La. (KTAL/KMSS) – The weather this weekend across the ArkLaTex will begin with mainly dry weather on Saturday with some of the hottest temperatures of the year so far. Thunderstorms will increase over the area with a few waves Saturday and Sunday nights. Hot and Humid Saturday: While a few showers will be possible over the northern edge of the area on Saturday, most of the area will see plenty of sunshine with plenty of heat and humidity. Lows Saturday morning will begin in the low to middle 70s. Daytime highs will likely soar into the upper 80s to lower 90s over the northern edge of the area to the middle 90s over East Texas and Northwest Louisiana. Storms likely Saturday night & Sunday: Futurecast continues to show more thunderstorms developing to the northwest of the ArkLaTex late Saturday afternoon and evening. These storms will move into and through the area Saturday night and Sunday. Another, and possibly the strongest wave of storms, will move across the area on Sunday night and Monday morning. Our primary threat will be damaging winds and possibly some hail. An isolated tornado can't be ruled out. The Storm Prediction Center indicates that we will have a level 1 to level 2 severe weather risk Saturday night. That risk will be highest over the northern half of the area. They also indicate that the marginal to slight risk will continue on Sunday and will once again be highest over the northern half of the area. More storms next week: We will continue to see occasional waves of scattered storms in the ArkLaTex through ALL of next week. Given how warm and humid it will be, more severe weather will be possible. The Blend of Models now shows that 10-day rainfall potential in our area will be in the range of two to potentially over five inches. Overnight lows next week will remain above normal in the low to middle 70s. Daytime highs will be near normal and mainly in the 80s and low 90s. I will take a deeper dive into possible severe weather impacts in my Weather Worries article later this 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
