Several area school districts, including the Lafayette Parish School System, are keeping an eye on potential severe set to roll through Acadiana on Wednesday.

Severe weather watches and warnings have already been posted in many parts of Louisiana. Here is where the storms are now and where they are expected to go.

April 1st has always been designated as "April Fools Day" and the pranks in 2024 just aren't as good as they once were.

There's another move coming from inside the broadcast circle in Acadiana and this time it is from within the Weather Center.

One of the nicest persons you'll meet in South Louisiana is KATC's Chief Meteorologist Rob Perillo, but even he has to address those who are a bit too vocal on social media.

National Weather Service forecasters have expanded the potential threat for severe storms in Louisiana on Friday. Here's how the forecast has changed.

Some parts of South Louisiana received a few inches of rain on Tuesday, while others received a large amount of hail.

We've talked about strange Louisiana laws before, but here are a few we haven't heard of yet...it's almost hard to believe they ever existed in the first place.

So many people in Louisiana are planning to either ride in or attend Mardi Gras parades this weekend and unfortunately, the weather could impact a few of these parades.

The St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office was called out to the scene, and was able to rescue the family, SLPSP revealed on Wednesday afternoon.

Louisiana meteorologists have been predicting that potentially flooding rains this week and that forecast has materialized as some areas were drenched.

Some flooding is possible in parts of Lafayette and throughout Acadiana.

The last time south Louisiana experienced a brutally cold Mardi Gras was 2021 when the temperature didn't get much above freezing. Will 2024 beat the coldest?

Freezing temps are coming to south Louisiana. Here's a humorous flash back to when temps dipped, conditions were wet, and Hoyt Harris told us to "hide yo kids."

Like many of you, KATC's Rob Perillo is monitoring the frigid air moving into South Louisiana early next week.

With below freezing temperatures heading to Acadiana in the coming days, you might be wondering at what temperature pipes burst.

With colder temperatures next week we will need to bundle up ourselves, our pets and our plants.

Temperatures are going to be dropping even lower than we thought as we look ahead into next week's forecast.

A significant rainfall event and a severe weather event are likely for Louisiana today. Here's the timing on when to expect the worst of the weather.

Two of Acadiana's top meteorologists have been indirectly sparring over a forecast involving cooler temps. But did one of them just get the last laugh?
