Still no sign or word about Amy Freeze, but hope this team sticks together. If Amy returns it would be great to see her paired with Jason Fraser in the afternoons… I agree. I love seeing Stephen and Marissa together. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18085-fox-weather/page/26/#findComment-297075 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenShine_10 96 Posted May 9, 2024 Share Posted May 9, 2024 I wonder if Fox Weather is also looking at possibly acquiring Mike Seidel and others laid off at TWC? They might be seeing that option open up. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18085-fox-weather/page/26/#findComment-297084 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtmclaug 67 Posted May 14, 2024 Share Posted May 14, 2024 I loved Jason and Amy. It’s sad if they’re both leaving, especially since Jason essentially kicked off FOX weather by being the first person to speak when they signed on. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18085-fox-weather/page/26/#findComment-297285 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Rubber 702 Posted May 15, 2024 Share Posted May 15, 2024 Based on what was written about Freeze, that makes total sense if true. As for Frazer, not sure about that one.

Jason's hiring was announced much earlier on June 24, 2021. Thinking that means his bio might get removed very soon.

Spring Rubber 702 Posted June 3, 2024 Share Posted June 3, 2024 Couple observations from the weekend and today... Apparently there was a scheduled edition of Fox Weather @Night with Haley Meier last night on Sunday night. I'm wondering if this show might be turning into a Sunday-Thursday night "get you ready for your next workday" type of show. This would make sense if true. Craig Herrera did not appear over the weekend; however, he's on Fox Weather First with Britta this morning on a Monday, which always used to be his day off. Is he possibly going to take weekday mornings on a regular basis? Michel Estimate seems to have worked a dual shift between Fox Weather First and Fox Weather Live on both Saturday and Sunday. Surely that can't be the long-term plan for weekends, right? 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18085-fox-weather/page/26/#findComment-297772 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hailey’s show makes sense as Sun-Thurs IMHO. for Craig, it’s probably too early to tell (unless an announcement is made) but he has earned it - he’s an original and has been working weekends from day 1. Are the early afternoon hours hosted by 1 rotating meteorologist since Jason left ? When does Ian’s show start/end and what about Steve’s?

Spring Rubber 702 Posted June 4, 2024 Share Posted June 4, 2024 Looks like nothing's permanent for Fox Weather First. Michael Estime is alongside Britta this morning, and Craig Herrera is going to be on Weather Command instead. It was the exact opposite yesterday. The afternoon America's Weather Center shift is indeed just a rotating cast of meteorologists, with Michael Estime or Bob Van Dillen most common during the early half of the week, and Jane Minar being most common in the second half of the week. Others pitch in as needed. Steve Bender is still the host of Fox Weather Live from 6pm-9pm ET with Kiyana Lewis being a contributing meteorologist to the show. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18085-fox-weather/page/26/#findComment-297802 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Rubber 702 Posted June 8, 2024 Share Posted June 8, 2024 I have no idea what's happening with weekends anymore. Fox Weather First was hosted by Michael Estime and Kendall Smith today. As for Fox Weather Live... it's Stephen Morgan and Kathy Orr. (Stephen was given Monday-Wednesday of this past week off to compensate) Both Craig Herrera and Bob Van Dillen worked Monday-Friday this past week. Craig did 4 days on Fox Weather First and 1 day of Weather Command. Bob did America's Weather Center the entire week. It's possible that they might be giving America's Weather Center to Bob. I noticed that on the Thursday edition of the show, they did a segment called "Bob's Bet," which was a trivia question at the end of the show between himself and the guest he was speaking to, with the stipulation that "Closest answer chooses tomorrow's music." This seems like something that you would expect to see if they're trying to shape the show around Bob. As always, I won't hold my breath. We'll see what happens in future weeks.

Jman7885 64 Posted June 9, 2024 Share Posted June 9, 2024 Based on social media posts, Stephen was off for a few days because he was traveling attending a wedding and looks like he extended the trip a bit. I wonder if he’s working Saturday to reduce the amount of PTO he’d have to take… regarding the rest of the schedule, it makes no sense. If viewers have an attachment to a specific meteorologist, but one day they are on 6-9, the next 9-12 it’s really hard to follow them! Why wouldn’t they just have them on consistent shows with consistent co-hosts?!? I get the rotation needed because of weekends, but why have Michael on the 6am some days, then the 9am, then the 6am, basically swapping with another met…Why not just the 6am every weekday, Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18085-fox-weather/page/26/#findComment-297891 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring Rubber 702 Posted June 14, 2024 Share Posted June 14, 2024 Looks like Fox Weather was surprisingly overstaffed today. Kendall Smith joined Britta and Craig on Fox Weather First today. Can't remember the last time that show has featured three meteorologists before today.

Politics and weather don’t mix well. I think with how polarized the cable news landscape has gotten we won’t see cross-over to that extent.

Jman7885 64 Posted July 9, 2024 Share Posted July 9, 2024 Makes sense. not sure if it’s because of the hurricane or just because they can’t go more than a few weeks without changing the schedule up….Weather Command has been on from 8-12 as of late.

Spring Rubber 702 Posted July 10, 2024 Share Posted July 10, 2024 I noticed over the past several weeks that for the solo-hosted shows that originate from the small studio (America's Weather Center and Fox Weather @ Night), they now roll in a monitor behind the host, which displays a background similar to the stand-up desk's background in Studio W. Previously, the hosts of these shows had the small studio's natural background behind them.
