New Orleans Weather: Excessive heat warning for Sunday and tracking Hurricane Beryl
SUMMARY: A tropical storm in the Atlantic has been upgraded to a hurricane, currently about 50 miles from the center with warm water and low wind shear aiding its strengthening. It could become a Category 2 hurricane by tomorrow, and possibly a Category 3, approaching the Lesser Antilles by late tomorrow into Monday. Wind shear may weaken it as it moves into the Caribbean. We are monitoring another potential system, Chris, developing near Yucatan, possibly moving into Mexico. We expect hotter, drier weather for the Gulf Coast this week, but will monitor long-term hurricane impacts. An excessive heat warning is in effect, with potential temperatures reaching up to 114°F.
Meteorologist Alexandra Cranford has the forecast at 5 p.m. on Saturday, June 29, 2024.
