Trent Aric joined the Local 10 Weather Team in June 2004.

Trent says he's a Hoosier at heart, and is originally from Mooresville, Indiana. After receiving a B.A. in Communication Studies and a Certificate in Journalism from Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, Trent headed south to Mississippi State University where he earned a Master's Degree in Geoscience with an emphasis in Broadcast Meteorology.

Trent was awarded the Seal of Approval of the American Meteorological Society in 2004.

Trent began his broadcast career at WRBL in Columbus, Georgia where he was morning and noon meteorologist. While in Columbus, Trent was involved in several charity and community organizations including Juvenile Diabetes Research and the American Cancer Society's "Relay For Life." He also served as emcee of the Big Brothers Big Sisters "Bowl For Kids Sake" and hosted an "Our House" benefit concert on Valentine's Day.

Upon arriving in South Florida, Trent was quickly introduced to the tropics and within his first two years of working at Local 10 covered two of the most active hurricane seasons ever in the Atlantic Basin.

Trent loves music and during college he performed at the Nashville Follies Musical Theatre in Nashville, Indiana for five years. Trent even got a taste of Hollywood when he filmed several scenes of the Paramount Pictures release "The Fighting Temptations" as an extra in both Columbus and Atlanta, Georgia.

Trent loves spending his free time with his wife and also enjoys singing and playing the guitar. He always looks forward to a good fishing trip with his friends.
