Re: Brian James filling in at Wood TV 8 weather
I'll be interested to see the Chief's "Mom cave" when she's begins doing her remote forecasts - following suit with Bill's "Man cave"...

Re: New meteorologist for Storm Team 8 or temporary fill-in for Ellen?
Chief Emeritus Bill has long had his "Man cave" to broadcast his weather reports remotely - I can't wait to see Ellen's "Mom cave" as the Chief follows suit to broadcast her weather reports remotely...

Re: Smile FM buys WGVS 850
From my understanding the deal only involves the license and the transmitter. The towers are still scheduled to be torn down and the property sold to developers. Smile will have to find another tower location in the Muskegon area for their signal and go through all of the signal tests, etc. the FCC...

Re: Reece Cole joins the FOX 17 Weather Team
I expect that as he "settles in" Reece will recognize his Millennial pace of speaking is not doing him any favors during his Weather casts. I see his discomfort each time he gets tongue-tied, eventually giggling it away before picking up where he left off. I wish the best for him as he begins what I...

Re: Hailey Vaughn what happened
I saw on here Hailey Vaughn quit Fox 17, well that didn't last long. I just looked on here and it was posted back in June she was starting, what just over 6 months? Any insight as to what happened, from anyone? ... As for your "well that didn't last long" observation, Velasquez could only drag hers...

Re: On Screen Faces Departing FOX 17
There are some new anchors/in-studio reporters I’m not recognizing (nor are they included in the FOX 17’s On-Air-Staff roster) during the newly formatted FOX 17 News at 4. News@4 anchor Doug Reardon posted a few behind the scenes shots of the new format to FB. As I suspected, it's done on a green s...

Re: Super Q - Whitehall in the late 70's.
The Little White House and its (now) 400+ foot 1490-AM tower still stand at the corner of Blank Rd. and White Lake Dr. just South of John Alan’s WAXT-LPFM 98.9.

Re: Fox 17 hires Meteorologist Haleigh Vaughn
Vaughn’s on-air presence and delivery are a breath of fresh air, IMO.
