Columbus Station One-Ups ‘Ice Desk’ with ‘Ice Weather Board’

WSYX has taken the Ice Desk idea to 11.

Yesterday the Columbus ABC afiliate debuted the “First Warning Ice Center,” which reporter Brooks Jarosz tweeted out was “Made with real ice!”

Chief meteorologist Bill Kelly told viewers on yesterday’s 5:00 p.m, “We have developed the entire First Warning Ice Center where we have a green wall that we’re going to be doing all the broadcasts out here for at least tonight.”
