severe weather

A severe thunderstorm watch has been posted for Acadiana for the early morning hours.

It looks as if our best chance for strong storms will come in the overnight tonight and the early morning hours of Wednesday.

The heaviest of the storms will likely move through the area about the time many high school football playoff games are being played.

Forecasters say Acadiana's next cold front is scheduled to arrive on Thursday. Until then, things should be rather quiet.

Before you need your coat you will likely need an umbrella and maybe a safe place to ride out the storms too.

A cold front should kick off showers and thunderstorms today but that doesn't mean we don't have a heat advisory too.

A line of strong storms and heavy rain is pushing toward South Louisiana this morning.
