• Engage your audience: Use social media and digital tools to expand your reach and connect with viewers in real-time.

What We’re Looking For:

• A strong storyteller who connects with viewers and makes complex information easy to understand.


• A self-starter who thrives on live reporting, especially in active, developing weather situations.


• In-depth forecasting knowledge with a commitment to accuracy and viewer safety.


• Excellent writing, communication, and newsroom collaboration skills.


• Ability to manage multiple deadlines and priorities in a fast-paced environment.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in meteorology or related field (or equivalent experience).


• Previous on-air meteorology experience preferred.


• Familiarity with weather systems and digital production tools is a plus.


• Valid driver's license with clean driving record
