His replacement will be Dr. Richard Knabb, an NHC meteorologist. I'll miss Steve. :(

It's definitely a big change, but he has "written more than 40 technical reports and articles for the National Weather Service and the Navy."  That quoted information comes directly from his TWC bio, so he has done a lot with the NWS already.

TWC is not doing a good job at creating a good environment for their best folks. Shame

Paul Kocin's position at TWC was eliminated, so he didn't leave TWC voluntarily.

It's hard to believe that he covered 12 hurricane seasons for TWC.  He posted a message on his FB today indicating that he enjoyed his time working at TWC and that he's extremely excited about his new opportunity with the NWS.  TWC and all of us fans will definitely miss him in the upcoming hurricane season.
