BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) – Temperatures will drop as we see a cold front move through into the early hours of Monday morning. Expect some patchy splashes until dawn arrives on Monday as the front brings drier air to the rear. Temperatures will be much cooler for the start of the work/school week. Make sure the kids have some sleeves for the upcoming morning bus stops.

We see lows in the 50s on Monday, but things could get downright cold on Tuesday. The National Weather Service has issued a frost warning for parishes and counties along the state line north of Baton Rouge.

If you planted or performed landscaping work, you may want to consider covering sensitive vegetation. Otherwise, simply protect people and pets throughout the area. Ironically, Tuesday is the official start of spring. However, winter won’t keep much of a hold on the onset of spring as the cold comes and goes with a warming trend starting Wednesday.

We will stay dry until Wednesday. Our next storm system and weak cold front will arrive Thursday through Friday. This system will not have as severe of an impact as rain coverage will remain scattered in nature on Thursday with only a few isolated showers lingering on Friday. All the rain seems to be leaving the area just in time for the first weekend of spring. We have a few more chances for showers and storms for the first part of next week.
