It will continue to be another very hot day to start the week, but Acadiana is finally seeing signs that the heat wave is coming to an end.
The ridge that has been so dominant for so long has finally broken, helping not only the temperature, but also the possibility of some afternoon showers.
That said, temperatures on Monday will still climb around 96 with a slightly warmer heat index, but it won’t be as intense as the weekend.
Showers and thunderstorms will appear later in the afternoon, giving us a much needed chance of rain.
Rain will spread each afternoon this week and that will keep temperatures in the low 90s almost every day this week.
Those who will be out enjoying the festivities on Independence Day will want a place to run inside to escape some rogue showers.
The fireworks, however, should not be affected as the rain will end later in the evening and certainly by sundown.
