Heather TeschOn-Camera MeteorologistYou'd think a native of Buffalo , Minnesota , would say snowstorms are her favorite weather event , but they are a close second to thunderstorms.I enjoy thunderstorms , whether I'm watching them on radar screens at work or looking at them through my windows at home..
To support her weather habit , Heather attended Plymouth State College of The University of New Hampshire , Plymouth , New Hampshire , graduating Magna Cum Laude with a B.S. in Meteorology and a minor in Math.Before thunderstorms caught her attention , she graduated Magna Cum Laude with a B.A. in Journalism/Broadcast from the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis.
Although Heather first appeared on-air at The Weather Channel in January 1999 , she has held various broadcasting positions around the country.Early in her career , she held reporting jobs from Brunswick , Georgia , to Corpus Christi , Texas , before becoming a Meteorologist for WPXT-TV and WGME-TV in Portland , Maine.
She spent two years at WGAL-TV in Lancaster , Pennsylvania , before returning to Minnesota and WCCO-TV in Minneapolis.She has prepared forecasts for all the mediums , from camera to radio to newspapers to local businesses.
Not only does Heather hold the American Meteorological Society Seal of Approval , she is currently serving on the AMS Broadcast Board that determines whether other meteorologists can gain a Seal of Approval.
Weather is not Heather's only passion As an animal lover with four cats and one dog , I enjoy getting involved with local humane organizations that care for , protect , and find homes for neglected and abused animals.I also care for an injured goose that lives on the lake behind my house..
Tesch BabyHeather also enjoys taking several hikes a week with her dog Doppler.It's a great way to get exercise and appreciate nature and the weather.
In addition to Heather's love for animals , she and her husband recently welcomed a new addition to their family.On April 16 , at 8 : 44pm , Heather delivered a 6 lb. , 10oz. baby girl named Sedona.
