Warming trend begins in Acadiana with temperatures reaching 80s

LAFAYETTE, La. (KLFY) - Overnight temperatures will once again be nice and cool as they dip into the 50s. A few showers will be possible early in the night before passing clouds move through into the morning. Patchy fog is likely to develop in areas and could be dense at times for the morning commute.

Monday will begin a big warming trend in the forecast. Temperatures reach 80 degrees in the afternoon as a few wrap-around showers circle the area of low pressure to our north. Otherwise, much of the day will remain dry.

Through the rest of the week, temperatures continue to tick closer to the 90 degree mark, likely hitting it by Friday. Rain is not expected through the work week, though we will watch next Saturday as a complex of thunderstorms may hold together long enough to reach Acadiana late in the day.
