Fox Weather unveiled its new lineup across free ad-supported streaming television (FAST) Monday. According to Streamable, the network’s new show “Weather Command” features real-time forecasting by Emmy award-winning meteorologist Amy Freeze.
Fox Weather President Sharri Berg told the website that “Weather Command” is the next evolution in weather forecasting.
“Every morning, Amy invites the audience into the Weather conversation, featuring a new ‘expert desk,’ leveraging the power of FOX reporting, and breaking down the news, forecasts, and aftermath with context,” said Berg.
“It’s more than radar and crunching numbers — it’s a conversation that brings perspective to science,” Freeze said. “Everyday weather is a concern in our individual days for how we operate, but weather is also a liability in communities and our nation’s economy.”
Fox Weather streaming service has made a concerted effort to bolster its roster of talent, including local reporters like Nicole Valdes, Steve Bender, and Max Gorden, who were hired last month.
Freeze, who worked at Chicago’s Fox Affiliate WFLD 32 from 2011-2017, was Chicago’s first-ever female chief meteorologist.
“As we build on the momentum of audience growth in both ‘peacetime’ and severe weather events, the FOX Weather team and talent is being positioned for continued success,” added Berg.
