Julie Durda

A native of Sacramento, California, Julie Durda joined Local 10 with extensive knowledge and experience in meteorology from various parts of the United States.

She began her broadcasting career as a traffic, feature and weather reporter in 2003 for KXTV, the ABC affiliate in her hometown. Julie quickly became interested in focusing on meteorology and the impact weather has throughout the U.S.

After Sacramento, she moved to KPHO, the CBS affiliate in Phoenix, Arizona, as the weather and traffic anchor.

As an integral part of the CBS Storm Team in Phoenix, Julie covered the Pacific hurricane seasons, including monsoons and haboobs (known as Arizonian Dust Storms). 

From there, Julie moved to a local Miami station where she became South Florida's No. 1 morning meteorologist.

Julie has spent nearly two decades mastering the tropical climate and Atlantic Hurricane season. Julie had the opportunity to bring her forecast to the national stage with her fill-in roles on GMA.

Julie obtained her degree as a broadcast certified meteorologist from Mississippi State University. She also holds the American Meteorological Society (AMS) seal of approval for television weather casting, and has been a member of the National Weather Association (NWA) since 2006. Julie has also been recognized as a reoccurring judge for the Suncoast Emmy Awards.

She is very involved in the community, and has been voted "Best Meteorologist in South Florida" numerous times over her career. Julie supports many charitable causes, including the Boys and Girls Club, Breast Cancer Awareness, and Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital. 

As an avid runner, Julie frequently promotes runs to raise money for local charities and loves being able to interact with her viewers. 

When Julie is not delivering the South Florida forecast, Julie and her family, husband David and son Dillon, enjoy traveling, going to the beach and spending time with family and friends.
