It's hard to imagine that Frank Billingsley will no longer be the KPRC 2 Houston chief meteorologist at the end of June, but that day is coming.
UPDATE JUNE 24, 2024
Anthony Yanez takes over for Frank Billingsley
Morning meteorologist Anthony Yanez recently talked to Billingsley about his television weather career.
In the interview, Billingsley touches on such meteorological topics as:
- One of the most memorable hurricanes that Billingsley covered was Hurricane Ike in 2008 and how he later flew over the Bolivar Peninsula to survey the damage.
- Another memorable moment in his career was during Hurricane Harvey in 2017. Frank was the first one to warn people that Harvey would bring 50 inches of rain.
The biggest change in the weather forecasting industry over the years has been the availability and quality of computer models.
- He says that the data going into the models is the biggest challenge.
