Madison Hartin joins KIII 3 News Corpus Christi


Madison Hartin is joining the KIII 3 News Corpus Christi weekend evening weather team in July 2026.  She left her morning forecaster position with KAMC Lubbock in June.

A fun Hub City TV fact: Hartin is a cousin of KCBD NewsChannel 11 Lubbock anchor Christy Hartin.  I will take this opportunity to say I am no relation to KFDX Wichita Falls sportscaster Tobin McDuff. 

And just to strengthen my ties to Lubbock readers of this blog, I have eaten at Spanky's, and thought the burgers were great.

Here is a portion of what Hartin posted:


"After 5 years at KAMC news I know in my soul that it is time to go.


Thank you to everyone who has tuned-in and welcomed me into your homes! It has been an honor forecast your weather and to be a part of this incredible community.


I’ve been blessed to work alongside so many amazing people. Especially @jenphillipsnews, who can always find the light even when the whole world seems dark."


A Texas Tech University graduate, Hartin worked for the student news organization MCTV as a student.
