WE CONTINUE TO COVER HURRICANE ISAAC AS IT IMPACTS THE ENTIRE NORTHERN GULF COAST REGION.
THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE IN THE BIG EASY TONIGHT.
THE STORM MADE LANDFALL ABOUT THREE HOURS AGO, ABOUT 90 MILES SOUTHEAST OF NEW ORLEANS.
WE'LL HAVE AN UPDATE, AFTER WEATHER--
Return to index of stories...
THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.
IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.
ISAAC HITTING LOUISIANA - OUR AFFECTS FADE
The wind and rain from Isaac continues to subside and by tomorrow our weather returns to normal for August. It looks like Isaac will make landfall tonight very near the Mississippi River delta and continue to move over, or near, New Orleans. Flooding rains and hurricane force winds will make for a long night in the Big Easy.
Our weather tonight looks mainly quiet but still a bit breezy. A few passing showers are possible this evening with winds at 10 - 20 mph pushing the rain quickly from north to south. The low tonight will be just under 80 degrees.
Tomorrow, the winds come around to a more southeasterly direction and the morning hours looks mostly sunny. A few clouds will build by the afternoon and there is a 30 - 40% chance for some thunderstorms to develop.
Looking ahead to the rest of the week and the holiday weekend we will continue to track fair skies in the morning and afternoon thunderstorms. Over the next week it looks like there is a chance for thunderstorms each day except Friday. Computer models keep that day mainly dry - but we'll have to see about that! It's back to typical August/September weather.
The tropical Atlantic still features a couple of systems to watch; however, the long-range forecast take developing storms away from the United States as of right now.
