Fox 5 Gets A New Weather Anchor

WNYW-TV has just announced the hire of a new weather anchor, Melissa Magee. Magee will be handling the weather on midday broadcast Fox 5 News at 11.

Now here’s the interesting thing. Prior to joining Fox 5, Magee spent two years over at AccuWeather. Before that… she was a television anchor in Bakersfield and in Scottsbluff, NE. Making the move up the ladder from rural Nebraska to New York City? Awesome.

WNYW’s full press release follows.


NEW YORK — Melissa Magee is the newest member of the Fox 5 Weather Authority, announced Lew Leone, Vice President and General Manager, WNYW-TV and WWOR-TV.
