More Snow Than the State Average

Measurable Snow in a Mild Climate
While summer and winter averages are not currently documented, the presence of 0.5 inches of annual snowfall indicates occasional freezing events. The 58.0 inches of precipitation is likely distributed throughout the year. Typical for the region, summers likely feature numerous days above 90°F.
Plan for Rain and Occasional Cold
Residents should prepare for heavy rain given the 58.0 inches of annual precipitation. Because the parish sees more snow than much of the state (0.5 inches), having basic winter supplies and insulated pipes is advisable. Monitor local forecasts during summer months for extreme heat, as northern Louisiana can reach high temperatures.
