The National Weather Service’s New Orleans/Baton Rouge forecast office (NWS LIX) has been reporting active severe weather potential across the Gulf Coast, with ongoing watches and warnings as fronts move through the region. This includes potential for strong thunderstorms, heavy rain, and isolated severe events through the weekend, with updates issued as conditions evolve.[3]

Regional forecast discussions and public bulletins emphasize the risk of flash flooding in low-lying areas and the possibility of brief tornadoes in strong storms, especially where repeat convection occurs. Residents are advised to monitor local alerts and have multiple warning methods available.[3]

For local specifics, you can check the NWS New Orleans/Baton Rouge page for current watches/warnings and zone forecasts, as well as the LSU State Climate Office resources that list the Louisiana forecast offices and their primary responsibilities (hurricane center forecasts, storm surge warnings, etc.).[6][3]
If you’d like, I can pull a few up-to-date bulletins or forecasts from those sources and summarize the current watches, warnings, and forecast temperatures for Buffalo’s reference? I can also provide a brief one-page outlook for the New Orleans area (short-term rain chances, heat, and any active advisories) with sources cited.
