Brett Anthony is heading down to Texas to be the chief meteorologist for KYTX CBS19 Tyler-Longview.

Still time for a last barbecue meal?

KYTX CBS19 is excited to have Anthony and his nearly 30 years of weather experience, as his bio is already online on the East Texas news website.

Before KCTV5, Anthony worked for KJRH 2 Tulsa as the station's chief meteorologist for for years. Jay Cronley at Tulsa World even wrote a glowing profile of Anthony and his forecasting accountable. 

Prior to Oklahoma, Anthony worked at KCTV's Kansas City competitor KSHB for 11 years. 

The first TV job listed on Anthony's LinkedIn profile is as weekend met for WOIO - WUAB  Cleveland, Ohio.

The two-time regional Emmy award winner has a meteorology degree from Western Kentucky University and a radio-TV degree from Southern Illinois University.
