Back On Air in The Burgh
/
Back in December of 2018, FTVLive FIRST told you that CBS O&O KDKA had parted ways with their longtime Weather Anchor Jeff Verszyla.
Verszyla had been at the station for over 2 decades.
Well, he is making a return to the airwaves. Last night on his social media, Verszyla announced that he be working freelance at Hearst owned WTAE in the Burgh.
He starts this weekend and says he is expected to be on mostly weekend nights into early August.
“It’s special,” Verszyla said of the opportunity. “It will be fun to get back on the air in Western Pennsylvania.”
He said he’s excited to work in the same studio and weather center as the late Pittsburgh weather legend Joe DeNardo.
Verszyla even joked about being rusty for being off TV broadcasting for about a year and a half.
“I’ve got to get my bearings again people,” he said.
He asked fans not to “call it a comeback,” referencing a LL Cool J song, when he’s back on the airwaves on Father’s Day at 6:30 p.m. and 11 p.m.
