"Good Morning America" weatherman
Tony Perkins (formerly of FOX 5) may be headed to ABC-7 (WJLA) according to rumors on
DCRTV.net. If true, he would join
Joe Witte as the second weatherman to leave the #1 market (NYC) for WJLA. I don't believe he's a degreed meteorologist. Perkins would be filling
Alexandra Steele's spot (who left for The Weather Channel), that is temporarily being filled by
Brian Van de Graaff. If you're keeping track of morning weather "talent" credentials,
Tom Kierein and
Tom Sater of Channels 4 and 5 have degrees in meteorology, while
Hillary Howard at Channel 9 does not.
