Break out the sunglasses today

SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) - Bright sunshine will continue through the rest of the afternoon and it will be much warmer with highs well into the 50s. Get outside and enjoy!

Tonight will turn cold under a clear sky with temperatures eventually falling into the 20s so make sure and bundle up if you have any Friday night plans.

The weekend is looking fantastic with just a few passing clouds and the warming trend will continue. Highs will reach the mid and upper 50s Saturday and then climb into the upper 60s by Sunday.

Even warmer by early next week with low 70s looking likely, especially along and south of I-20!

The dry pattern will continue into Monday but by Tuesday, moisture will return from the south setting the stage for another active stretch of weather as a slow moving storm system approaches from the west.

Repeated rounds of rain are again possible from Tuesday through Thursday and this could result in more flooding concerns for the ArkLaTex. Stay up to date with the forecast as we get closer to next week.

Have a great weekend!
