Mark Elliot tweeted that today is Vivian Brown's 25th anniversary on The Weather Channel! I figured she was here for THAT long. Congrats to her!

I heard they did some sort of presentation that highlighted her years on TWC... I didn't watch it. Anyone did, though?

I just happened to turn on TWC just as it was starting.  It was very touching.

...didn't we have a topic about her? I swear I've seen one. Oh well, making one anyways because I can. :)

I merged your topic into the one that already existed for her.  It was two years old, but I figured that I would keep it as one thread since you're talking about the same OCM.

One thing is certain about Viv, she fits that category of people who hardly ever age. She looks the same now as she did 25 years ago. :happy: Congrats to 25 years!

Congratulations on serving 25 years at TWC, Vivian!  I do wonder how much longer will she be there though.

Congrats to Vivian, as well. One of my favorite meteorologists at TWC. :happy: Just curious, but does she have a family? If so, I'm sure her husband and kids would be happy for her as well

I'm assuming you didn't watch the video above because that was mentioned there how she's been pregnant on air a few times in the past 25 years, specifically her 2003 pregnancy. I remember when she was pregnant on air back then.

Loved the video, by the way! :thumbsup: But here's a question: who (or what) determines what meteorologists get to talk about her? For example, Cantore obviously has to give his input. Jeff Morrow and Nick Walker as well. But what about Abrams, Bettes, Warren, and Egger? I'm guessing it's because they are the hosts of the top-rated shows. But have either Egger or Warren, for example, ever worked with Vivian on air? I know there is some behind-the-scenes stuff where they may have worked with her, but I don't see how they can really say much if they've only been there for a few years. :thinking:

I remember Vivian being pregnant in 2003, too. She is married with one child.

Hmm, I wonder how recent that article has been updated. Like in the Life's work section, it says Vivian is one of two black female OCMs at TWC, but that's not true since Betty Davis was let go last year.

Also the person who uploaded this video claims Vivian was pregnant here back in 1999, but I can't confirm that. I think she was, but it was probably early in like the second trimester or something.

I remember those clips from the 90s!  Well, not those exact clips, but seeing Vivian on the air back then.  And yes, she looks great even after thaving children.  I have always liked her slight southern accent while on air.  Like Jim Cantore said, it was relaxing.
