New Orleans Saints legend, NFL Hall of Famer Drew Brees to ride in Bacchus
516 AND ON THIS DAY, LET’S SEND THINGS OVER TO RAVEN AND RAVEN. A REALLY FOGGY START OUT THERE. YES IT IS. YOU KNOW, IT’S WORSE THAN YESTERDAY MORNING AND THIS IS CLOSER TO THE GROUND. YOU CAN SEE THIS IS OUR CAMERA JUST OUTSIDE OF OUR STATION. TYPICALLY YOU’RE ABLE TO SEE THE CRESCENT CITY CONNECTION. YOU CANNOT SEE THIS FOG IS LOWERED. I’LL SHOW A COUPLE OF OTHER CAMERAS. THIS IS THE MANNING FAMILY. CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL BELIEVE THIS IS THE PORT. NOW, I CAN KIND OF SEE THE PORT A LITTLE BIT, BUT THAT JUST GIVES YOU AN IDEA OF HOW DENSE THE FOG IS FOR THIS MORNING. SO EVERYBODY UNDER THAT DENSE FOG ADVISORY OVERLAND UNTIL NINE OVER WATER UNTIL 2 P.M. SO IT’S GOING TO HANG AROUND A LITTLE LONGER. HERE’S WHERE WE’RE AT RIGHT NOW. A LOT OF US LESS THAN A MILE RIGHT NOW. SO NO MATTER WHERE YOU’RE COMING FROM OR WHERE YOU’RE TRAVELING TO IN OUR AREA, YOU WILL LIKELY RUN INTO SOME FOG, WATCHING AS WE’RE WATCHING SOME OF THIS TO FILL IN. AS WE’RE LOOKING OVER LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN, YOU’RE DRIVING OVER THE CAUSEWAY THIS MORNING. JUST KNOW YOU’RE PROBABLY GOING TO RUN INTO SOME THICKER FOG AS WE GET LATER INTO THE MORNING. ONCE THE SUN DOES START TO RISE, THAT’S WHEN THINGS MAY END UP GETTING WORSE FOR US. BUT HERE’S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE AS WE GET TO 8 A.M. STILL LOOKING AT FOG. FOR A LOT OF US. THEN AS WE GET TO NINE NOTICE OVER LAND, IT’S FINE. AND THEN YEAH, YOU CAN STILL SEE IT HANGING AROUND OVER WATER. AND THAT’S PRETTY MUCH GOING TO BE THE CASE IF YOU’RE WORKING OFFSHORE FOR TODAY. JUST KNOW GOING TO BE SOME VERY FOGGY CONDITIONS FOR MAJORITY OF YOUR DAY. AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES GO, WE ARE VERY MILD. ONCE AGAIN, THIS IS ABOUT THE SAME AS YESTERDAY, UPPER 40S AND SOME LOWER 50S OUT THERE. FOR US, IT ACTUALLY FEELS DECENT. AND THEN AS WE GO THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE DAY, WARMING BACK UP INTO THE 70S WILL BE THERE VERY QUICKLY THIS TIME. BY ABOUT 11 A.M., SO VERY QUICK WARM UP IS IN STORE FOR US, BUT EVENTUALLY WE’LL SEE PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. WE’RE STILL LOOKING AT ABOUT TEN DEGREES ABOVE AVERAGE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR 77 UP IN HAMMOND. AND YOU KNOW WHAT? AS WE GET TO TOMORROW, SOME OF US COULD GET CLOSE TO 80 DEGREES. NOW, WE DO HAVE A PARADE FOR TONIGHT TO SHOW SOME LOVE. KREWE OF SYMPHONY OUT IN METAIRIE STARTING AT 630 TONIGHT. THINGS LOOK FINE FOR YOU. 60 AND CONTINUING TO STAY THAT WAY IN FOG. LIKELY GOING TO DEVELOP AFTER THE EVENT IS DONE. LET’S TALK ABOUT THE RAIN FOR THIS WEEKEND. THAT’S WHAT ALL EYES ARE ON AS WELL. SO WEDNESDAY I DO HAVE A SMALL CHANCE OF A SHOWER OR TWO MOVING IN FOR THE AFTERNOON. IT’S NOT A BIG DEAL. IT’S ONCE WE GET TO OUR SATURDAY LATE SATURDAY INTO EARLY SUNDAY. SO THIS IS ONE OF THE HIGHER RESOLUTION MODELS SHOWS WE COULD HAVE A COUPLE OF SCATTERED SHOWERS THROUGHOUT THE DAY ON YOUR SATURDAY. AND THEN THIS ONE WANTS TO PULL THE RAIN. AND THIS IS 8 P.M. SO YOU CAN SEE HOW IT’S JUST ON THE OTHER SIDE OF NEW ORLEANS RIGHT NOW. THEN WE GET TO NINE STARTS TO MOVE IT CLOSER. THEN WE GO BEYOND 1011 AND IT MOVES IN. NOW THAT’S JUST ONE. AND AGAIN, IT’S JUST TUESDAY. HERE’S ANOTHER ONE. WE’VE BEEN WATCHING VERY CLOSELY. THIS ONE TRIES TO HOLD IT OFF FOR A LOT LONGER. HERE’S 10 P.M. YOU CAN SEE NOT EVEN CLOSE. DOESN’T QUITE REACH THE METRO AREA UNTIL ABOUT MIDNIGHT. SO STILL GOT A COUPLE OF THINGS TO WORK OUT WITH THE DETAILS, THE TIMING AND ALL THAT. BUT AS OF RIGHT NOW, WOULDN’T WORRY J
