Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Frierson, LA

DISCUSSION
Issued at 1230 AM CDT Mon Aug 3 2026

The weather pattern will transition out of northwest flow today as as upper ridging across the SW CONUS builds into the region. Light southerly winds will return, resulting in slightly warmer temperatures this upcoming afternoon, with highs returning into the mid to upper 90s. However, dew points are expected to remain in the low to mid 60s, so we should remain below the heat advisory threshold.

Upper ridging will hold firm over the region through most of the upcoming work week, keeping mostly dry and hot conditions in place. There is some hint of a few isolated afternoon showers on Tuesday, as increasing low-level moisture moves into the region, so decided to add low chance pops across portions of our East Texas and Louisiana forecast zones. Southerly winds will continue to bring in low-level moisture and a return of dew points into the lower 70s throughout the week. With afternoon highs ranging from the mid 90s to around 100 degrees, we can't rule out the return of heat headlines, as heat indices will likely approach advisory criteria. These dry conditions could cause some wildfire concerns, with a few counties and parishes already issuing burn bans. As we move towards the latter half of the week into next weekend, long- term progs suggest the ridge will shift back west of the area.
During this period, we could see enough weakness in the atmosphere to allow for some much needed isolated to widely scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms. At the same time, we could also see some seabreeze activity ramp up and push inland from the northern Gulf, enhancing rain chances across the region. /20/
