Either Jim Castillo likes moving around a lot, or the guy can’t keep a job.

Whichever it is, the journeyman Weatherman has landed at Tegna’s KSDK in St. Louis, which is a bit of a homecoming for him.

Castillo, who is from the St. Louis area, has been hired to do the weather on weekends, plus the 5PM newscasts on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

Castillo has more than 30 years of meteorology experience and has worked in some of the biggest television markets in the country, including KTLA and KCBS in Los Angeles; KOMO and KCPQ in Seattle; WNYW in New York; and WTXF in Philadelphia.

“We know keeping tabs on severe weather and planning weekend activities around the forecast are top priorities for St. Louis. To that end, Jim brings unquestioned credentials and experience, plus a friendly, audience-focused way of explaining the science,” said Director of Content Carol Fowler.
