Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Glencoe, LA

SHORT TERM
(Today through Wednesday night)
Issued at 335 AM CDT Mon Apr 28 2025

Early morning sfc analysis shows the area under the influence of high pressure centered over the nern Gulf and ridging wwd, maintaining a light onshore low-level flow. Water vapor imagery shows mid/upper-level ridging in place from the Rio Grande Valley/wrn Gulf nnewd through the Mississippi Valley, while a cutoff low was noted approaching the Rockies. Satellite imagery shows mainly thin cirrus streaming overhead, while sfc obs indicate patchy light fog ongoing. Local 88Ds are again PPINE.

Thanks to the ridging settling overhead, near zero rain chances linger through at least Wednesday afternoon. The main sensible weather expected over the next few days looks to be late night fog potential as we're seeing this morning...fog guidance looks a little more bullish on development towards sunrise Monday morning.
And without a real pattern change over the coming days, will likely see a repeat Tuesday morning as well. Meanwhile, the warm temperatures we've been experiencing lately will continue with highs pushing 90F each afternoon, especially across the nrn zones.
Overnight temps will offer a little relief, although lows in the mid/upper 60s to around 70 are still several degrees above normal for this time of year.

Towards the very end of the short term (Wednesday night), rain chances return to at least the wrn 2/3 of the forecast area as the wrn CONUS system approaches and interacts with increasing moisture across the area.

LONG TERM
(Thursday through Monday)
Issued at 335 AM CDT Mon Apr 28 2025

Rain chances associated with the approaching system linger into Thursday before diminishing Thursday night. An additional round of convection is expected for Friday as the next perturbation aloft helps push an associated sfc boundary across the forecast area.
Unfortunately, the airmass behind the boundary doesn't appear to be a lot different than what we're currently seeing, with temps only looking to drop a few degrees by next weekend.

AVIATION
(12Z TAFS)
Issued at 600 AM CDT Mon Apr 28 2025

Patchy fog is off to a slower start this morning across the area, but recent obs show it's becoming more of a nuisance as we approach sunrise...conditions should begin improving after sunrise with VFR conditions lingering through the day. With srly low-level flow expected to stay somewhat elevated tonight, fog may not be as big an issue as previously thought...although with copious moisture progged, low ceilings will likely become an issue, especially at the swrn sites.

Issued at 335 AM CDT Mon Apr 28 2025

In the short term, not expecting to see any headlines on the CWF as onshore winds are progged to remain below any criteria. However as the gradient tightens a bit on the heels of lower pressures to the west, caution headlines look possible through the middle of the new week.
