Title: New weather.com bios for the OCMs and reporters launched
Post by: Spring Rubber on November 14, 2008, 08:18:29 PM
I saw this a few days ago but forgot to mention it, but sometime over the past week, TWC relaunched the OCM bios page under the new weather.com/tv format. They also added a bunch of pictures of the OCMs, added a Q&A section that allows you to ask the OCMs questions about themselves, and added in bios for their reporters. They also put Warren Madden's bio back up there and added Ryan Goswick's bio.

Check it all out here:

BTW, apparently Julie Martin is studying Meteorology full-time according to her new bio. Might we see her pull a Kristin Dodd and go from reporter to OCM? I guess we'll find out! :P

If that does happen, I think she would be a good ocm.

How new is Ray Stagich? :dunno: He probably doesn't have a bio page yet; hopefully TWC will add him soon.

These new and improved meteorologist bios are excellent! :twothumbs: I especially love some of the personal pictures for some of the OCMS. B)

He's not new. In fact, not even close to being new.

He's just an apprentice, so I guess they feel he's not worth a bio page. :hmm:

it's not cool. He's been there even since before the June 2nd HD relaunch... That's 6+ months. He would be the perfect addition for "Sunrise Weather" as all of the other OCM bios have their respectful shows in them.

He's been in the air since at least 2004. His main job is in the radio division, where he does have a bio.

It also looks like the TV schedule page got a nice spicing up! I approve.  :biggrin:

It lists that Heather Tesch and Nicole Mitchell are the main hosts of Your Weather Today... hmmmmm  :thinking: It doesn't look like they're gonna try to fill Marshall's spot at all.

For the record I recall seeing Ray on the air as far back as 2003. In fact, I think I have a clip of him during Isabel coverage.  :yes:

Ray Stagich's profile is on the radio broadcast OCM list. And Tyler is correct, Ray isn't new. He's been with TWC since 1996, but hasn't appeared on air much until the past five or so years.

Thanks, these are great bios and a terrific upgrade! A couple of interesting tidbits...

Kim Perez: "I think people are most shocked when they hear I love heavy metal and that I went to Ozzfest with my siblings and nephew in 2005."  :thumbsup:

Dave Schwartz: "I volunteer time at a service that records and broadcasts programs for the blind and print-handicapped. I read the local paper live with another person or two which is broadcasted on a sub-FM channel that people with special receivers can listen to. I contribute money to organizations that fight for a just and peaceful world." What a rockstar!  :clap:

Betty Davis: "People may be surprised to know that it really is all my hair, no extensions involved."  :lol:
