My interest in weather was kindled by watching @weatherchannel as a kid in the mid-1980s. I earned a PhD in meteorology and now teach weather at the University of Illinois.
Some memories stay with you forever. From handwritten letters to lifelong fans, we’re reminded that The Weather Channel has always been about more than the forecast. To everyone who grew up with us and continues to be part of our story today, thank you. 💙

Fair skies and pleasant weather is expected across central and southeast IL this week. Above normal temperatures are expected with mild days and seasonably cool nights. Wednesday and this weekend will be the warmest days in the upper 70s to mid 80s. #ILwx

The @NewRyanField looks fantastic by day, and really impressive all lit up at night (which it will be for the first game next week when @NUFBFamily hosts Penn State!)

Finally – always fun to spend time with the great Loren Tate. Today was the 60th anniversary of his first @news_gazette story & he’s still out there taking notes (noticed him jotting down a depth chart), writing columns & hosting radio shows. He’ll be 95 in Nov. Man is amazing.
