10Viewer 333 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Columbus weather legend Jym Ganahl has passed at 76. He came to WCMH in 1979 from KWWL, one of the youngest TV meteorologists in the nation. He 'retired" from WCMH in 2016. After a year, he returned to the air on WSYX/WTTE, retiring last year. This is a huge loss. His 'weather lore' was the best. RIP Jym. 1 1 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18066-in-memoriam/page/30/#findComment-303591 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think he was pushed out at WCMH and his return to TV was as soon as he was able to. One of the many reasons ABC 6 & FOX 28 have become the new stations of record after NBC4 and 10TV's missteps and selling out to the highest bidder. 1 1 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18066-in-memoriam/page/30/#findComment-303613 Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was that episode back in 2008, IIRC, where they hired another meteorologist to tag team the weather with Jym. It was a huge mistake. He certainly went through ups and downs at WCMH. A great man indeed. 2 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18066-in-memoriam/page/30/#findComment-303666 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Lange, long-time Penguins broadcaster, dies at 76 I'm not a hardcore hockey fan, but amongst the great voices in the history of the NHL, he was one of the most identifiable ever.

east-tx-tv 120 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 From the Tyler/Longview market comes news of the passing of Horace McQueen. He was the longtime host of Farm and Ranch News, an early morning staple on KLTV and KTRE in the years long before there were early morning shows. From cattle auction results to ads for Evergreen and Lone Star Feeds, local viewers were assured of a good dose of ag news. McQueen was 86. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18066-in-memoriam/page/30/#findComment-304462 Share on other sites More sharing options...
