The coolest point behind last week’s cold front has passed. However, expect a slow temperature rebound thanks to clouds and a few showers late Sunday into Monday. Eventually, a steady warmup will take hold and carry into next weekend.

Tonight & Tomorrow: Though temperatures will tumble into the 40s by mid-evening, incoming high clouds will keep them from dipping into the 30s overnight. Still, expect a chilly start to Sunday with lows in the lower 40s for Baton Rouge and areas north of I-12, with mid-40s closer to the coast. That's warm enough to keep the region free of frost concerns.

Clouds will dominate most of Sunday, likely thickening through the afternoon as a developing offshore storm system pulls moisture into the Capital Area. Moving in from the west, a stray sprinkle or light shower will be possible by late afternoon. These will help moisten the lower levels of the atmosphere and set the stage for better rain chances Sunday night.

Up Next: Scattered showers will move through the region Sunday night into early Monday. Overall rainfall will be light, with totals generally staying under an inch. The highest rain amounts will fall west of the Mississippi River and toward southwest Louisiana. A few lingering showers could dampen roads for the Monday morning commute, creating slick spots in a few areas. Rain will clear out by Monday afternoon, with returning sunshine nudging highs into the mid-to-upper 60s. That will mark the last day in the 60s, as highs climb back into the 70s for the rest of the week and potentially reach 80° by next weekend.
