Jon joined the ����vlog Storm Team in November 2023 as the weekday morning meteorologist.

Originally from Texas, Jon attended Texas A&M for his degree in Atmospheric Science and a minor in mathematics. Throughout his college career, he and his colleagues would assist the local NWS office by launching weather balloons when the conditions called for it. He also had an opportunity to assist the NOAA Nation Severe Storms Laboratory with their Spring research by launching weather balloons and analyzing the atmospheric data.

Jon moved up to the Midwest not long after graduating. He worked for KIMT as the morning meteorologist for northern Iowa and southern Minnesota. He fell in love with the Midwest and the ever-fluctuating weather patterns that occur here. From the cold and snowy winter months to the hot and volatile spring/summer months, it is a weatherman’s paradise.

For the last 5 years, Jon and his wife have lived in the Des Moines area. In his downtime, he gets out and about as much as he can. From walking his two dogs (Echo and Mila) around the neighborhood to going to one of the many great food spots around the city. Maybe even throw in an annual snowboarding trip in the Rocky Mountains if he can.
