Weatherman Follows His Anchor Wife out of the Business
/
KOLN (Lincoln, NB) Weatherman Rusty Dawkins no longer will deliver weather forecasts for Gray Television.
The meteorologist announced Sunday on Twitter he accepted a position as social media manager with the Arbor Day Foundation. He started yesterday at the new job.
"I do still love weather, and I know you guys love heaving weather information, so I still need to figure some things out," Dawkins said in a YouTube video he posted Sunday to Twitter. "I still want to provide everybody with weather information. If there's going to be a big blizzard, a tornado outbreak or something big like that, I'll make sure everybody knows about it just because I love weather so much -- and day-to-day stuff, too."
He is married to former KOLN anchor Melanie Bloom. She left the station in 2015 and works in Lincoln as a real estate agent.
