BG.BROOKS GARNERBROADCAST METEOROLOGIST

Experience & leadership

Built in the newsroom.
Grounded in service.

My career began in 2003. Across seven markets, the purpose has stayed consistent: help people understand the weather, make informed decisions, and trust the person delivering the forecast.

How I work

Preparation. Respect.
Shared responsibility.

Strong weather coverage starts before the cameras turn on. It takes clear priorities, good communication, and a team that knows what to expect from one another.

I value the producers, directors, photographers, engineers, and fellow meteorologists who make every broadcast possible. The audience sees the person on screen; the work belongs to the team.
