The coldest air since last March will arrive overnight, with some reaching into the 30s. Overall, the weekend will be cool, with highs not leaving the 60s.

Tonight & Tomorrow: A chilly night is ahead, with many reaching into the 30s by the early morning hours. Frost will be a distinct possibility, especially north of I-12. If you live in those areas, and have sensitive plants, it will be a good idea to cover them or bring them inside. Sunshine will dominate for most of Saturday, but it will overall feel cool, with highs topping out in the mid-60s. This means that you can comfortably wear layers all day long. 

Football Forecasts: For the Friday Night Blitz, it will be the chilliest so far! Kickoff temperatures will be in the mid-50s, with the upper 40s being possible before the final whistle. The bottom line is wear some layers! 

For LSU and Southern home games, also wear some layers! Tailgaters will be treated with cool conditions all day long with highs only reaching the mid-60s. Temperatures will drop quickly in the evening, so consider even warmer clothes for the night game in Death Valley. Temperatures will reach into the 40s after halftime!

Up Next: Clouds will increase for the 2nd half of the weekend, but it will still feel chilly at times. Lows in the morning will be in the low 40s, with highs near 67°. As a weather system develops to our west, a few showers will be possible in the evening. This system will pass to our south overnight, leading to scattered showers Sunday night, and even into the day on Monday. Clearer conditions will arrive by Tuesday, with temperatures slowly increasing as the week goes on. By the end of the week, highs will be in the 70s, with lows increasing to the 50s.
