WOW! I think there’s a chance that we hit G5 conditions briefly. A G5 geomagnetic storm is the strongest that we can see, which means at times we can see the aurora with the naked eye. #lawx #louisiana

FROST POSSIBLE NEXT WEEK: Confidence is growing in north & central Louisiana seeing our first frost of the season next week, and possibly our first freeze. Morning lows for the first half of the week will bottom out in the 30s. As of now, I expect Tuesday morning to be the coolest. #lawx #louisiana
