CBS Austin KEYE viewers probably wondered who the guy doing weather was this weekend, turns out it was News 4 San Antonio WOAI chief meteorologist Chris Suchan!
Both KEYE and WOAI are owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. and are clearly wired to help each other out.
"Yep, I made an appearance in Austin yesterday helping our sister station CBS Austin," Suchan posted on Facebook. "Our two stations and weather teams are tight, ready to step in when called upon. If you have friends / family in Austin or the Austin area, be sure to tell them to watch CBS Austin and Chikage Windler with her great weather team for all your forecast needs!! They got you covered."
"Teamwork makes the dream work," KEYE chief chief meteorologist Chikage Windler added on Facebook. "So thankful for Chris Suchan Meteorologist from our sister station News 4 San Antonio who worked a Saturday night (on National Weather Person's Day!!) to help us out! Please tell your friends and family in San Antonio to watch Chris and his team if they don't already. Meanwhile, we're working on getting up to full staff here at CBS Austin once Meteorologist Avery Tomasco returns from paternity leave and we welcome a new meteorologist to the team."
Austin readers...be on the lookout for a new CBS Austin meteorologist and give me a shout when you see them!
