Re: Emily Schuitema Leaving WOOD TV Weather Team

So that's why they had a job posting for the weekends. Not to replace Bill but to replace Emily.

Re: another departure from Fox17 Weather department

Detroit is a possibility given Anthony is from that area. I had two other thoughts cross my mind: One other possiblity is Las Vegas. His brother John was a reporter at WOOD-TV and is now at KTNV. Interestingly, KTNV is a Scripps owned ABC affiliate on Virtual Channel 13. But it seems if he was stay...

Re: New Weather Center Being Built at WOOD TV 8.

Ellen did mention on twitter that it was sleek and she liked the design. It looks nice, now WZZM should step up their game and update their weather center.

Re: WOOD-TV Looking for a Meteorologist.

So I take Bill will be totally off tv as soon as they hire someone for the weekend? If we are talking former ZZM meteorologist could see Laura Hartman take the job.

Re: Meteorologist Laura Velasquez joining Fox 17 WXMI Feb 15

I believe Bill is gonna go a couple more years so he gets 50 years in broadcasting. Ellen does a good job and has been on a lot including the severe weather outbreaks and has handled those well. I am not sure who will get the job but I think it will be Ellen.

Wish WWMT and WOOD would put a repeater up in Muskegon County somewhere.

Re: Meteorologist Aaron Ofseyer Leaving WZZM

What's going on with their meteorologist search? Awful long time to not have a 3rd meteorologist let along not having a 4th. Being cheap?

Re: Meteorologist Aaron Ofseyer Leaving WZZM

Wow!! So now they have to hire at least two meteorologist. My guess the people quitting over there isn't done yet. I really thought Aaron could have been the eventual replacement for chief. So far they haven't listed that job opening yet.

Re: Meteorologist Alana Nehring Leaving WZZM

So I wonder if who they hire in January will be in line to be chief once George retires or if Aaron will become chief?
