WDSU FIRST WARNING WEATHER WEATHER ALERT DAY IS ALREADY IN EFFECT FOR THE COLD THAT CAME IN TODAY. THEY’RE GOING TO HAPPEN ALL WEEK LONG. CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL CAM PORT OF NEW ORLEANS BEHIND ME HERE, BUT WE ARE ALREADY UNDER A WINTER STORM WARNING. THIS IS FOR TUESDAY, SO IT KICKS IN MONDAY NIGHT TO TUESDAY AT MIDNIGHT, MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY AND THEN GOES TILL TUESDAY NIGHT, MIDNIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. SO THE 24 HOURS OF TUESDAY, EVERYBODY SHOWN THERE SHOULD BE PREPARING NOW. IN FACT, IF YOU’RE NOT EVEN UNDER THE WARNING, EVEN ALL THE WAY TO THE COAST, YOU SHOULD BE PREPARING. I’M GOING TO SHOW YOU WHY IN A MINUTE. ON TOP OF THE FOUR P’S, WE’RE PROTECTING NORTH SHORE AND SOUTH SHORE. IF YOU HAVE AN EMERGENCY, TRY TO GET A SHOVEL. TRY TO GET SCRAPERS IF YOU CAN. RIGHT NOW, A LOT OF US PARK OUTSIDE ON THE STREETS. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE YOU GOT TO BE ABLE TO CLEAR YOUR CAR IF YOU HAPPEN TO HAVE SOME SORT OF EMERGENCY. REAL TIME TEMPERATURES ALREADY 39 IN HAMMOND. WE’RE 47 RIGHT HERE, AND WE’VE GOT A BREEZE THAT’S ALREADY IN 10 TO 20MPH WITH HIGHER GUSTS. SO HERE’S THE BIGGER PICTURE FOR US. WE’VE GOT THIS DEVELOPING GULF LOW. USUALLY WE TALK ABOUT HURRICANE SEASONS AND GULF LOWS AND STORMS WE DON’T WANT. IN THIS CASE, IT’S THE BRUTAL ARCTIC COLD THAT WILL INTERACT WITH THAT DEVELOPING SYSTEM. YOU CAN SEE THIS. THE SNOW SHOWN IN THE PURPLE BLUE SHADES, THAT LITTLE MIX THAT’S GOING TO BE THE SLEET, THE FREEZING RAIN, ICE, MAYBE EVEN RAIN AND SNOW ALTOGETHER. TOMORROW MORNING IT IS COLD. THE COLD ADVISORY IN EFFECT 20. BUT THEN THE WIND CHILLS, MAKING IT FEEL AS COLD AS 10 TO 15. SO THE COLD ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM US KICKS IN HERE IN ABOUT 12 MINUTES. AND WE GOT THE CLOUD CAST TOMORROW. CLOUDS WILL BUILD IN LATE. SO IT’S A SUNNY DAY. IT’S A BREEZY AND COLD DAY. TEMPERATURES ONLY INTO THE 40S. WIND CHILLS EVEN EVEN COLDER THAN THAT. SO LET’S REALLY BREAK DOWN TUESDAY. WINTER STORM WARNING THAT’S ALREADY IN EFFECT. IT’S NOT FOR THE COAST, BUT YOU COULD FIND WINTRY WEATHER TO THIS. THIS PARTICULAR HIGH RES FORECAST SHOWS AFTER MIDNIGHT PRECIPITATION COMING IN, BUT THE MIX THE POSSIBLE SLEET AT FIRST BEFORE TRANSITIONING ALL TO SNOW AS WE GET THROUGH THE HEART OF THE MORNING HOURS HERE ON TUESDAY, THEN EVERYBODY COULD BE GETTING SNOW THROUGH THE HEART OF THE DAY, WRAPPING UP BY TUESDAY EVENING. THIS IS A WORKHORSE FORECAST THAT’S COMING OUT OF THE US. OUR GFS COULD START WITH THAT PRECIP ONSET A LITTLE BIT LATER, BUT DOES ALSO SHOW THE VERY BIG SIMILARITIES HERE. GOING TO SNOW IN THE AFTERNOON, WRAPPING UP BY TUESDAY NIGHT. AND THEN WE GO INTO THE FORECAST OUT OF EUROPE. ALSO COMING INTO ONSET CLOSER TO SUNRISE. IF YOU HAPPEN TO SEE IT STARTING WITH MIXED PRECIP FIRST HERE, THEN TRANSITIONING ALL THE SNOW, HEAVIER SNOW GOING INTO THE HEART OF THE DAY. HEAVIEST SNOW SHOULD BE RIGHT AT ABOUT NOON UP UNTIL ABOUT 3 TO 4:00 AND TAPERING OFF BY TUESDAY NIGHT. WE’RE LOOKING AT FORECAST TOTALS FROM THE US FORECAST 2 TO 4IN AROUND THE AREAS, BUT YOU CAN START TO SEE SIMILARITIES AND A LITTLE BIT HIGHER FORECAST OUT OF EUROPE. SO WHEN I BREAK IT ALL DOWN AND LOOK TOGETHER, THIS IS WHAT I’M SEEING, THAT I GOT A 1 TO 3 ON THE COAST AND I SEE A 2 TO 4 RIGHT IN THROUGH THE RIVER PARISH CORRIDOR, THE I-10, IF YOU WILL. AND THAT INCLUDES NEW ORLEANS RIGHT NOW AROUND A THREE INCH FORECAST. LOOKING GOOD. BUT THAT’S BOTH SLEET AND SNOW. MORE JUST SNOW AND A CORRIDOR OF ABOUT 3 TO 6 IN THE NORTH SHORE. AND FARTHER NORTH YOU’RE GOING TO GO THE PRECIPITATION ACTUALLY CUTS OFF AND IT COULD BE AREAS WEST. WE LOOK FOR A LOT OF THIS TO SNACK UP THE TIMING AFTER MIDNIGHT, EARLY MORNING HOURS. AND NOT UNTIL YOU GET CLOSER TO SUNRISE AREAS EAST. THE HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE 30S. WIND CHILLS EVEN COLDER, BREAKING IT DOWN FIRST TO THE NORTH SHORE. THE 3 TO 6 INCH MAINLY SNOW, SOME SLEET. YOU’RE UNDER THE WINTER STORM WARNING IN THE COLD WEATHER ADVISORY RIVER PARISHES 2 TO 4, MAINLY SNOW BUT SOME SLEET MIXING IN HERE TOO, ESPECIALLY AT ONSET. THE WINTER STORM WARNING THE COLD WEATHER ADVISORIES IN EFFECT, WE GO INTO THE THIBODAUX AND THE BAYOU PARISHES AREA AND HOME A 1 TO 3. THIS IS WHERE WE START TO GET MORE MIXED PRECIPITATION. THERE COULD BE A LITTLE BIT MORE OF THAT FREEZING RAIN AND ICE. WINTER STORM WARNINGS AND COLD WEATHER ADVISORIES FOR YOU TO THE METRO. A 2 TO 4 OF MAINLY SNOW. WE GET SOME SLEET HERE TO THE WINTER STORM WARNING. THE COLD WEATHER ADVISORY AND THEN LOWER PLAQUEMINES IS THE ONE WHERE WE COULD GET EVERYTHING ALL TOGETHER. BUT YOU’RE NOT OFFICIALLY IN A WARNING AND IT COULD BE MORE RAIN AND YOU DON’T GET A WHOLE LOT TO STACK UP, BUT IT STILL COULD BE PRETTY DANGEROUS FOR THESE MARTIN LUTHER KING JUNIOR HOLIDAY. A VERY COLD ONE, OF COURSE. THAT’S WHY THE ALERT DAY AND THE COLD ADVISORY, WE LOOK FOR THE PRECIPITATION ONSET LATE MONDAY NIGHT ALL THE WAY THROUGH TUESDAY. THEN ONCE WE GET THROUGH THIS, IT IS STILL VERY COLD INTO WEDNESDAY, WHICH, AS
