Jennifer,
I just stand to watch the weather when you are not there. I know you need time off either on vacation or personal days. Even when your children are sick or not feeling well. Also, I bet you have huge clothes for your morning show. I have more opinions about the other weather personalities.
Thank you,
Doug Keck.
Jennifer, great reporting and effective.
You are a great addition to Cincinnati weather reporting
