  1. Hi Jaclyn,

    Listened to your story about Kal Lake. FYI, you are pronouncing the full name of the lake incorrectly. There is a second “l” close to the end of the name that you are not pronouncing.

  2. I have always loved your former weather show with Mark Robinson. I have been in prairie storms in Saskatchewan and in two tornados in Minneapolis – to actually LOOK for these storms! Wow. Also, I enjoy your ongoing presentations. Keep up the good work!

  3. Hi Jaclyn Whittal,
