TV weather forecaster Amy Freeze

An appropriate name for someone who makes a living predicting snow in the colder months, eh?


Amy Freeze has been a weather forecaster at WABC-TV in New York since 2011, but she has a long history in other cities.  Having gotten her start at KPTV-TV in Portland, Oregon, she worked at WCAU-TV in Philadelphia and then WFLD-TV in Chicago.  It was when she was in Chicago that she would give presentations in local schools about the weather and severe storms.  Ms. Freeze's school-lecture program was called "Weather Education Days."

In New York, Ms. Freeze has a special segment - "The Freeze Factor" – in which she rates the following day's weather on a scale of one to ten.  In 2017, the New Jersey news site NJ.com named her the Top Forecaster in the greater New York area for the year.

Fun fact: She had a cameo in an episode of the NBC series "Scrubs."
