UPDATE MAY 2021
Brooks Garner joins FOX 35 WOFL Orlando
--ORIGINAL POST FROM 2019--
Former KHOU 11 meteorologist Brooks Garner is heading to FOX 31 KDVR Denver.
"In just a few weeks, I will join the FOX 31 and 'Colorado's Own 2' Pinpoint weather team as the morning meteorologist for FOX 31," Garner posted. "I am absolutely humbled at this rare opportunity to cover the uniquely extreme weather found only on the Front Range. I can't wait to teach my wife and kids how to ski, and introduce our dogs to some of the most beautiful hiking trails in the country."
He is replacing Greg Dutra who is leaving Denver for another TV job the station reported.
“We are proud of the momentum behind the FOX31 Morning News,” said Joan Barrett, VP and General Manager of KDVR-TV and KWGN-TV. “Being able to add Brooks to our Pinpoint Weather team will continue to build on the most accurate forecasting that we’re proud of at FOX31, and we’re proud that Coloradans are turning to us on air, online and in the community.”
Back in 2013, Garner came to KHOU 11 from WFLA News Channel 8 Tampa.
Before Tampa, Garner worked at WIS Columbia, S.C. and KMEG Sioux City, Iowa.
The Emmy award winner is a graduate of Mississippi State University’s broadcast meteorology program and also has a degree from the Massachusetts College of Art in Boston.
He was named one of the Sexiest Weathermen on Earth in 2015 by TV Guide.
"I'm grateful to everyone in Houston who's followed me for the past six years and look forward to new adventures in Colorado," he added.
