After six years at WTTG, Perkins joined ABC's Good Morning America on March 8, 1999 as the program's weekday morning weather forecaster and features reporter, where his catchphrase to turn it over to the local weather was "the weather in your neighborhood." He succeeded Spencer Christian on Good Morning America, who had moved to San Francisco to become a weather anchor for KGO-TV in 1999.

He received his Bachelor of Arts degree from American University's School of Communication in 1981. During college, he worked with the campus radio station and the black student newspaper, later eventually helping to found the campus television station.

Perkins began his broadcast career as a desk assistant for the ABC News Washington, D.C. bureau in the early 1980s. From 1986 to 1988, he hosted and produced DC20 Breakaway for WDCA. From 1993 to 1998, he served as a weather forecaster at Fox's Washington, D.C. owned-and-operated station, WTTG, and co-anchored the station's Fox Morning News from 1998 to 1999.
