The temperatures will be quite comfortable, soaring up to a warm 87°F. Perfect weather for wearing those Halloween costumes!

Evening Outlook

The winds will be blowing gently from the south-southeast at 10 to 15 mph, making it a pleasant night to be outdoors. Take note, though, that a stray shower or even a brief thunderstorm is a possibility later in the day. However, it shouldn’t dampen the spirits, and we hope it stays dry for all the Halloween fun!

Community News Updates

In other news, consumer confidence is rising among the locals, reaching the highest mark since 2021, thanks to findings from business research groups. It’s always good to feel secure and optimistic about the economy!

Safety Alert

Meanwhile, there have been a couple of public safety updates that residents should be aware of. The Louisiana State Police recently arrested two Shreveport firefighters as part of an ongoing investigation, and a woman was apprehended in New Orleans for stealing an ambulance that was responding to an emergency. Luckily, police are working hard to keep our community safe.
