Weather Alerts For New Roads, LA

# HEADLINE -------------------- ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS TODAY # SUMMARY -------------------- Elevated fire weather conditions can be expected across portions of southeast Louisiana and southern Mississippi this afternoon. Relative humidity values are forecast to drop into the 30 to 40 percent range, especially near and north of the Interstate 10 and 12 corridors. The 20 ft wind forecast is expected to remain at or below 10 mph in most areas, which should limit critical fire weather conditions or at least the effective spread of fires that may ignite. Numerous local burn bans are in place and continue to expand across LA and MS due to ongoing drought conditions. This now includes East Feliciana, Iberville, Pointe Coupee, St. Helena, St Tammany, Tangipahoa, Washington and West Feliciana Parishes along with Wilkinson, Amite, Pike, and Walthall Counties. Regardless, outdoor burning is strongly not recommended this afternoon, and all local restrictions followed. # DETAILS -------------------- ISSUED AT Sunday, October 25, 2026 at 12:36 AM CDT ISSUED BY National Weather Service New Orleans LA HEADER Special Weather Statement # AREAS AFFECTED -------------------- Eastern Ascension, Iberville, Northern Hancock, Northern Livingston, Northern Tangipahoa, Southern Hancock, Southwestern St. Tammany, Amite, Assumption, Central Tangipahoa, East Baton Rouge, East Feliciana, Lower Tangipahoa, Northern Harrison, Northern Jackson, Northern St. Tammany, Pearl River, Pike, Pointe Coupee, Southeast St. Tammany, Southern Harrison, Southern Jackson, Southern Livingston, St. Helena, St. James, Walthall, Washington, West Baton Rouge, West Feliciana, Western Ascension, Wilkinson Including the cities of New Roads, Lettsworth, Livonia, Spillman, St. Francisville, Wakefield, Jackson, Clinton, Felps, Darlington, Easleyville, Greensburg, Montpelier, Bogalusa, Enon, Franklinton, Bayou Sorrel, Plaquemine, White Castle, Port Allen, Addis, Brusly, Baton Rouge, Pierre Part, Labadieville, Paincourtville, Convent, Lutcher, Gramercy, Amite, Kentwood, Roseland, Wilmer, Slidell, Covington, Folsom, Bush, Mandeville, Madisonville, Hammond, Tickfaw, Independence, Robert, Ponchatoula, Akers, Denham Springs, Walker, Livingston, Springfield, Killian, Whitehall, French Settlement, Sorrento, Acy, Gonzales, Prairieville, Geismar, Donaldsonville, Centreville, Dolorosa, Fort Adams, Woodville, Gillsburg, Gloster, Smithdale, Liberty, McComb, Dexter, Salem, Tylertown, Crossroads, McNeil, Poplarville, Picayune, Necaise, Sellers, Saucier, Lyman, Wade, Vancleave, Escatawpa, Kiln, Pearlington, Waveland, Bay St. Louis, Diamondhead, Pass Christian, Long Beach, Gulfport, Biloxi, Pascagoula, Ocean Springs, Moss Point, Gautier, and St. Martin
