Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lake Charles LA 101 PM CDT Sun Mar 8 2026
New SHORT TERM, LONG TERM, AVIATION, MARINE, FIRE WEATHER
KEY MESSAGES
- A frontal boundary will gradually wash out over the region through Monday which will keep rain chances elevated
- There is a slight risk of severe weather Wednesday as an upper level disturbance pushes a Pacific cold front across the region
- Cooler and drier weather anticipated behind the front for late in the week
SHORT TERM
(Tonight through Tuesday night)
Issued at 101 PM CDT Sun Mar 8 2026
A weak frontal boundary has stalled over the region over the past evening. Modest upper level impulses interacting with the stalled front and ample moisture have produced widespread rain with the biggest winners being across Allen, Evangeline, and Saint Landry Parishes with 2 to 7 inches begin common. While most of the convection has moved into the gulf or to points east, however showers will remain possible through the afternoon.
Tonight, if clouds manage to clear fog will develop and it may be dense. It is unclear at this point how large the scope of fog will be, and therefore the advisory was held off. Chances are highest along the coast and into Acadiana to the Atchafalaya.
The frontal boundary will wash out across the region while lifting back north Monday. This may allow for scattered showers and storms, especially across inland areas and during the afternoon.
Warm, humid, and dry weather is anticipated Tuesday.
LONG TERM
(Wednesday through next Saturday)
Issued at 101 PM CDT Sun Mar 8 2026
A cut off low that is currently near the Baja will finally eject northeast through mid week. As this occurs the associated cold front will sweep through the region Wed/Wed night. A line of storms may occur. A portion of the region has been highlighted as having a slight risk of severe weather by SPC.
A cooler and drier air mass will advect in for late week.
AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 101 PM CDT Sun Mar 8 2026
Ceilings will bounce around this afternoon before returning IFR and then LIFR tonight. Fog will be possible toward the early morning hours of Monday. Winds will be light and VRB this afternoon before become SE tomorrow.
MARINE
Issued at 101 PM CDT Sun Mar 8 2026
Light southerly flow and low seas will persist through early Tuesday as a front stalls then washes out. A low pressure system will develop Tuesday that will increase the southerly flow late int the day into early Wednesday with winds becoming quite breezy over the coastal waters until a Pacific cold front moves across on Wednesday. Strong north winds and building seas will occur behind the front into Thursday.
FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 101 PM CDT Sun Mar 8 2026
A frontal system will dissipate across the region over the next couple of days. Therefore, a warm and moist air mass will remain over the region with afternoon minimum relative humidity values over 60 percent. A Pacific cold front will sweep through on Wednesday.
