Casey Curry returned to Houston TV in August 2021, this time at KPRC 2 as meteorologist.
I first noticed Curry's return to the weather segment during Hurricane Ida coverage.

Dominique Sachse to leave KPRC 2
In early September, Curry said on Instagram that she is "just filling in until their their staff filled out and up to speed." KPRC viewers might see Curry filling-in from time to time based on her appearances.
In the summer of 2021, the KPRC 2 weather department was down personnel thanks to the New York City departures of two meteorologists. Britta Merwin left for the new FOX Weather and Eric Braate took off to WNBC.
By September, Anthony Yanez returned to his channel 2 morning shift after doing weather at KNBC 4 Los Angeles for more than six years. A few weeks later, Caroline Brown joined channel 2 Houston from WeatherNation.
Curry, who left abc13 KTRK in September 2017, immediately appeared on KPRC's Houston Life as a guest host upon her channel 13 exit. A few days after her Houston Life appearances, Curry did fill-in weather work at FOX 26 KRIV.
While at channel 13, Curry became a viewer favorite as its morning meteorologist. We watched her give birth to baby Winnie. She took a scary fall while on live TV that concerned many of her abc13 KTRK fans. Curry's massive Houston television news popularity even took her to the network level several times to fill-in on ABC's Good Morning America.
And as you can see from the embedded video above, Curry did another guest host stint on Houston Life in March of 2021.
Since leaving Houston television news, Curry joined the alliantgroup in 2018 as community relations director.
A commenter on my social media said the former popular TV meteorologist should be back on Houston TV. I almost responded that Curry seems pretty content being off TV. Glad I didn't comment, because I would have guessed incorrectly!
