Fox17 has been teasing a new promo that will air during the Super Bowl announcing a new addition to the team. The person appears in silhouette. All I can tell from the profile is the person is male and his ears stick out a bit.
Gut feeling is it's someone who has worked in the area. But who fits this description that would have left their station within the past 12-18 months (when any non compete would now have expired)
I don't see anyone returning to 17 that has recently left nor do I see them adding back a fifth meteorologist.
Last I knew, Brent Ashcroft had returned to Fox17 as a producer but I don't see him going back on camera.
Curious on everyone's guess.

Well we were all wrong. And it apparently was not truly announcing a new addition to the team. Was cool seeing Davis again. Found a link to the video on the station's website. Not sure how much it will air but it did run at least twice between 4 and 6 on Monday afternoon.

That was hilarious. Throwback to the old ESPN ads and The Office.daveman wrote: ↑Mon Feb 10, 2025 5:53 pm Well we were all wrong.
