Dave Dickson, a familiar face on Houston TV in the 1980s and 1990s, died in Brenham, Texas, on January 28, 2024.
When he arrived in Houston, Dickson was a meteorologist for KPRC 2, followed by FOX 26 KRIV and the now defunct KNWS 51.
Prior to Houston, Dickson was a meteorologist/reporter for KVUE Austin from 1979 until 1986.
KVUE's Bob Garcia-Buckalew has an excellent profile on Dickson, which you can watch in the above video.
"He was one of the most versatile reporters I have ever known," former KVUE anchor Judy Maggio told Garcia-Buckalew about Dickson. "He was a fearless reporter who also had a great sense of humor. He knew how to put people at ease and make them laugh."
