From Iberia Parish President M. Larry Richard – Severe Weather & Flooding

The National Weather Service predicts severe weather for much of SE Texas and SW Louisiana.

Severe weather will be possible tonight into Friday morning as a cold front moves through the region. Damaging wind is the highest threat, but large hail and tornadoes are also possible. In addition to this, there is a risk of flash flooding.

While much of Acadiana is expecting severe weather tonight, Iberia Parish is under a marginal risk.  Residents should remain vigilant tonight and into Friday morning.

Another system is forecast to come into our area Sunday through Tuesday.  This system brings a risk of flooding.
