That Saharan dust hasn't dried up Mother Nature's waterworks just yet. However, rain chances over the weekend are expected to be not quite as large.

Some parts of the state could see in excess of three inches of rainfall during today's rounds of storms.

A better than average chance of some stormy weather is dominating our forecast for the next several days.

Rain chances are well above normal for much of this workweek across Acadiana. Some severe storms could be possible.

Showers will pass through the area this morning but the late afternoon and evening should be spectacular across South Louisiana.
