Louisiana’s Naughtiest Minds Lead to Hilarious Comments on Hurricane Rafael Forecast
A recent forecast map of Hurricane Rafael, posted by FOX Meteorologist Zack Fradella, has generated a wave of humorous commentary on social media. The suggestive shape of the storm's projected path quickly caught viewers' attention, leading to a flurry of funny—and sometimes risqué—comments. This response is no surprise, given Louisiana’s sense of humor and the fact that we can't help ourselves when it comes to naughty jokes.
Fradella's update on Facebook indicated that Louisiana is now outside Rafael's cone of uncertainty, bringing relief to many who were preparing for potential disruptions. However, rather than being afraid of the storm, followers appeared to be more intrigued—and amused—by the graphic's unintended resemblance to certain body parts.
“Is that from a urologist's office?” Sherry Vitter joked, reflecting a common theme that could be found in over a thousand comments as many humorously suggested that Rafael's "shape" might need "a pill for that."
While most of the comments remained light-hearted, some were quite clever. Peter Bruno joked, “If it gets excited, Florida is in trouble!” Meanwhile, Kassie Smith offered another take on the storm’s erratic path, asking, “So... can this one do the helicopter?”
Fradella noticed the crowd's amusement and laughed, saying, "Y'all have some dirty minds," acknowledging the laughter sparked from his otherwise routine weather update.
Despite the fun, Fradella reminded followers to keep an eye on Rafael’s unpredictable path, which he described as “weird, wonky” and “typical of November storms.” He added that while the storm is expected to dissipate over time, Louisiana could still see some rain—just not the “disastrous hurricane situation that people once thought it could be.”
The best news? Rafael’s forecasted “loopty-loop” likely won’t disrupt UL Lafayette’s homecoming weekend or the LSU-Alabama showdown, leaving Louisianans free to enjoy their weekend plans with just a chance of some rain—and a lot of laughs.
