The primary weather impact in the near term is patchy fog during morning commutes. Otherwise, the weather will be quite nice and seasonable for the time of year.

Tonight & Tomorrow: Additional clearing will take place during the evening hours. While much of the night looks cloud-free, fog will develop in spots closer to daybreak. While widespread dense fog is not expected, patches of dense fog will be a possibility. Look out for reduced visibilities during the Tuesday morning drive. Any fog that does develop with lift quickly after sunrise. The rest of the day will be mainly sunny. After a morning low in the upper 40s, afternoon highs will rise to near 73° in Baton Rouge.

Up Next: It is almost a copy-and-paste forecast from Tuesday, into Wednesday. Patchy morning fog will give way to afternoon sunshine. Afternoon highs will climb by a few more degrees, reaching the mid-70s. On Thursday, a weak cold front will move through the state. Limited moisture and lift will result in a dry frontal passage except for a spotty shower or two. And because the front is Pacific, not Arctic, in origin, a major drop in temperatures is not expected. Behind the front, afternoons will be a few degrees cooler before warming again over the weekend.
