Another one is out the door at KENS in San Antonio.

After 13 years at the Tegna station, weekend meteorologist Jared Silverman has left for “family reasons.”

Silverman told mySA in an email. "It's just my wife, our daughter, and myself out here in San Antonio, which we were able to deal with for a while. But as the saying goes, it takes a village to raise your kids ... so we wanted to be closer to family."

He is leaving TV news and going into teaching.

"My second passion behind meteorology has always been teaching. I've always been a bit jealous of teacher's schedules, having weekends off, holidays off, and summers off," Silverman wrote in the email. "As such, I've accepted employment for two jobs, one full time, one part time as a teacher, and as an adjunct professor. I will be teaching Geo-science with weather included."

While the weather guy leaves, the station did hire a new Reporter.

Holly Stouffer joined the KENS team on July 1 after leaving KXXV in Waco.

"I've been working in Waco for the last two years," Stouffer told mySA in an email. "When it came time for me to move on, I knew I wanted to stay in Texas. KENS 5 has a great reputation. The talented journalists who work here are creative and care deeply about their community. This is a team I'm proud to be a part of."
