I posted this on the Allen Media page but will post it here too WTVA has announced Chelsea Simmons as the Chief Meteorologist.

Speaking of Matt leaving WTVA just announced Chelsea Simmons is the Chief Meteorologist.

Finally! The temp set is similar to the one 9 has as well.

KEYC has brought back local morning news to the Mankato MN area as KATO Mornings after 7 months of KTTC doing it however KTTC will still be providing noon newscasts for both Mankato and Rochester.

Wcbi’s Chief Meteorologist Issac Williams is leaving and heading to WANF.

Update they have named McKenna King as their new Chief Meteorologist.

I was told by the assistant news director at KJRH back in April that Scripps was working on a new graphics package and looks like Tampa Bay is the first to get it.

That too (which is still stupid of AMG to do.)

Nothing new they want people on their paid streaming to watch all the weather coverage it’s such BS but welcome to today’s media.

Meteorologist Colton Williams is heading north. As I previously mentioned he left KTUL at the end of April and was helping KJRH and still is until the end of the month, then he will be heading up I-35 to Wichita and joining the KAKE First Alert weather team and will start in June doing the 4pm newscasts Monday through Friday.

New set and building is fully live. And good news they didn’t from the FOX from the logo.

Well they already said if anything breaks severe weather wise while flipping everything over to the new building they are ready to go.

Bad news KWTV’s Bob Mills SkyNews 9 a new Bell 505 has been totaled in an accident this evening while landing at Wiley Post Airport. Both pilot Jim Gardner and photographer Tim Young walked away with some non serious injuries, the 505 replaced the 407 that was totaled in 2023 hail storm in Pauls Valley Oklahoma and this comes on the same week that KOTV debuted the 505 Osage SkyNews 6. Photos of the helicopter before and after the crash.

I like it better than the Plan on it they were using.

Update on TJ Eckert he is joining KJRH starting Monday as senior reporter/anchor and will be anchoring the 6:00/6:30 Extra Edition newscasts with Naomi Keitt.
