I know there is an excitement about precipitation possibly but I am not wishing for it. My major concern is pipe freeze on south shore. Is this still on the table next week? We are going to have to prep 2 houses that are off the ground. What are the thoughts here?

Likely relegated to the north shore…maybe River parishes.

Interesting... the 6Z GFS gives us a light dusting of snow on Tuesday, no ice, but then gives north Louisiana a couple inches of snow on Thursday and nothing for south Louisiana.

We are really closing in now. Excitement is growing. NWS forecast page for the Thibodaux area for Tuesday... (likely just computer generated, but still, it is the NWS page")

"A chance of snow showers and freezing rain. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 38. Northeast wind 10 to 15 mph."

Like cajungal just mentioned. We will be so close to the critical thickness needed for snow to develop and actually make it to the surface. Where that boundary lies will determine who gets all snow (if anyone) or who gets a wintry mix of sleet/snow/rain, etc. Will get get only freezing rain? That's possible as well. Regardless of the changes each run is showing precip wise, they are all still pretty much agreeing to a Gulf storm brewing.
