Apology for this non sequitur but I was just thinking, growing up you had weatherman James Spann WBMA. I had a weatherman, Rich Thomas WSFA. Like I knew the weatherman's name and would instantly recognize him. I don't think my 11yo has literally ever seen a local weatherman. Weird thing that's gone
We have so many tornados and crazy warnings that our weather folks are pretty much local celebrities. Also, sometimes briefly national ones: m.youtube.com/watch?v=qjgt...

Yeah, I hear that! Spann is actually the weatherman of my adulthood, but in a BIZARRE twist my local weatherman in Maine was Ken Barlow and the same year we moved to Minnesota, he... also moved to Minnesota? So I have had great consistency in weathermen my whole life. 🤣
