Camping Gems - Louisiana Tips Hurricanes and Tropical Storms With all the news about hurricanes and tropical storms, you might wonder how you can visit Louisiana without running into one.  In reality, these storms only brew up between June and September (with occasional weak stragglers on either end of those dates).  Visit during any other season, and you won't need to worry.  Even if you do head to the Big Easy in the summer, you'll be well warned if you tune into radio, television, or newspaper news from time to time. Weather Louisiana's weather comes off the Gulf of Mexico, which accounts for its semi-humid subtropical climate. Snow rarely falls anywhere in the state, and temperatures are usually mild, warm, or hot. In the north, the average July highs are in the low eighties; the January winter lows are around 50 degrees.  In the southern part of the state, things are a little warmer: January lows are around 60 degrees.
