Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Hackberry, LA

SHORT TERM
(Tonight through Saturday night)
Issued at 235 PM CDT Thu Jun 12 2025

Showers and storms, while mostly subsevere at the moment, are moving across the CWA The strongest storms are located along the broken line that roughly stretches from CenLA down through the Gulf waters south of E Cameron Par. Light showers have continued

An upper level disturbance located east of the ArkLaTx Region is expected to weaken as it continues lifting NNE. Even after it moves off, we will have a weakness aloft over the area and persistent southerly flow keeping that tap of Gulf moisture flowing. This will allow for continued showers and storms, with most of the convection being diurnally driven.

The rain and cloud cover will keep MaxTs near climo norms while insulating us at night where we will have MinTs a few degrees above normal.

LONG TERM
(Sunday through next Wednesday)
Issued at 235 PM CDT Thu Jun 12 2025

The unsettled and wet pattern will persist through the extended period. This will be mainly due to a weakness aloft remaining in place over the period, however we might see PoPs drop as an upper ridge over MX slowly moves eastward and another upper ridge over the Atlantic expands over the Gulf. We will have to see how this plays out. If the ridge does not have any influence by the mid week period, continued wet weather and mild temps to prevail. If it does, this could allow for slightly reduced PoPs and higher temps.

AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1143 PM CDT Thu Jun 12 2025

Light winds and high clouds continue through the next few hours.
Only exception will be AEX where patchy ground fog will continue to be possible through sunrise. For the I-10 terminals, convection is expected to develop early, likely prior to sunrise, near the coast and spread north. This first round of storms may be followed by a brief lull but convection is expected to blossom further by mid-morning particularly between I-10 and the coast.
Showers and storms will likely persist well into the afternoon, bringing reductions in VIS, elevated winds, lower CIGs , and frequent lightning. By the late afternoon convection should begin to wane, tapering off completely near sunset.
