A 9.37" report on the map this morning (4/7) caught our eye. A #CoCoRaHS observer near St. Charles, LA reported that amount and verifies the radar estimated rainfall for that spot. The radar estimate is actually 10 inches or more to the southeast of the observer.

Kudos to our

Muggy overnight temps w/ a chance for low level clouds to sink & lower visibility in early AM hours. Rain over the coast wanes overnight. Warmth w/ chance of rain continues Wed. Even though it doesn't feel like Dec, a local

observer reminds us that it's holiday season

The “I” is a cylinder test tube filled with a purple bubbling solution. The “E” is a swirly seashell. The “N” is nitrogen’s chemical symbol. The second “C” is a crescent moon. The last letter “E” is formed with three green leaves.
