Emily's LinkedIn now lists the WILX position as Sept 2020-Aug 2021, so yup... she's definitely gone. She hasn't listed her new position yet though.

A year getting paid to do nothing at WILX completely worthless. So, back to Darrin whose retirement happened before Emily was even in the picture. Looks like grass wasn't greener on the side so it worked out for him.
so- all that buzz for nothing new but a new logo.
any idea what market or station that Emily will be at? I miss seeing her beautiful face...

Has any on-air talent ever gone directly from Lansing to Chicago? I think this may be a first.

Emily was hired by Fox 32 Chicago as chief meteorologist.
