Not only is the prediction for named storms above average so is the prediction for major hurricanes in the Atlantic Basin.

The threat of severe storms is minimal at this point but that could change as we move into the weekend.

As the devastating tornadoes tore through Tennessee last week, one family's doorbell camera shows just how quickly and violent things became in a matter of 2 minutes.

The threat of strong storms and possible tornadoes will exist across the state today.

22 people are dead and over 150 reported injured following a tornado that ripped through middle Tennessee, including an area just North of Downtown Nashville overnight.

A video posted on social media shows the size of the tornado that swept through downtown Nashville early Tuesday morning.

Showers and thunderstorms could pop up in Acadiana today but the stronger storms are expected in the area later tonight and most likely on Wednesday.

Showers and thunderstorms will move into Acadiana during the day Tuesday. Strong storms with heavy rainfall are likely for Wednesday.

Forecasters believe most of the rain should be out of the area by the time the Queen's Parade rolls at 6 pm tonight.

Mardi Gras revelers will need a jacket for today and tomorrow. They might need an umbrella for Lundi Gras.

Today's wet wintry conditions will yield to much better weather by the time tomorrow's Mardi Gras fun begins.

Friday and Saturday are shaping up to be excellent days for Mardi Gras fun. Sunday and Lundi Gras are looking a little dicey though.
