The latest drought monitor reveals that the situation is worsening across our state. Areas in Acadiana that were previously drought-free are now experiencing abnormally dry conditions. Unfortunately, extreme drought levels have risen to 15%, up from 10% just last week.

A rainless cold front arrives Saturday, bringing a drier and cooler airmass. Once the front passes, winds will increase, and humidity will decrease, leading to an increased fire threat. Fire Weather Watches are already in place for several parishes this weekend, and these watches will likely extend into our area.
