A recent thread started over on StormTrack about who was everyone favorite mets, so I added a post and thought I would share it here with my readers.<\/p>\n

My favorites are of course the guys I work with all the time.<\/p>\n

John Robison<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Steve Devine<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Cary Allen<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

John is the chief met and has been with KCBD since 1983, a year before I even started chasing, and is like the Dick Clark of weather, they guy just doesn’t age much. No matter how bad things get, even when we have had tornadoes about to plow through a town, he’s always kept a calm cool demeanor and never overplays a situation unlike some of the other stations here do with their “run for your live” reporting on thundershowers.<\/p>\n

Steve is our morning guy and also has a very calm demeanor when sever weather is in progress and always enjoys long conversations in severe weather.<\/p>\n

Cary has every bit as much of a storm chaser heart as I do, even if he can’t get out as much as he would like. He only recently returned to KCBD a couple years ago, he had been there before. He also still does stuff for a lot of central Texas radio stations remotely. We have lengthy conversations about chasing stories and the weather of the day.<\/p>\n

While they are all colleagues, I am also pleased to call them friends. Although we are in a smaller market, I think they are as good of a team of weather guys you can find anywhere, which in do small amount contributes to why KCBD is #1 in our market by a HUGE margin. If you ever are in the area, or staying the night, you’ll get your best weather coverage right there on Ch. 11.<\/p>\n

When svr wx is threatening, almost always all three of them are working together on it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
