Sunny Saturday ahead of rainy Sunday

Weather

A bright, sunshiny day is on tap for our Saturday.

After starting in the 30s and 40s, however, it will stay cool.

"High temps will only reach the low 60s Saturday," according to WWL TV Chief Meteorologist Chris Franklin.

Clouds come back today with rain not far behind.

"An upper trough currently moving across the Rockies will begin increasing clouds by late Saturday afternoon and evening," Franklin explained. "Mostly cloudy skies and a chance for showers will be in the forecast for Sunday."

He has a 50% chance for showers, with the better inland rain chance on the Southshore and toward the coast.
