Signing Off in Houston

Popular KPRC Meteorologist Britta Merwin is leaving the station.

Merwin came to Houston back in 2014 and now she’s leaving. She hasn’t said what’s next, but word is she is headed to the East coast.

She posted this to her Facebook:

"I have tried to write this post so many times and it has become very obvious that there is no easy way to break this news... After 7 wonderful years I will be leaving KPRC2 on June 4th.

It is bittersweet to say goodbye to Houston but I am accepting a job (stay tuned for details) that will allow us to move back east to be by our family. I am excited for my kids to have their aunts and uncles at their games, to be by their grandparents and for their great-grandparents to have the opportunity to hold them often.

Thank you to my amazing team! It has been an honor to work alongside my coworkers who are honestly dear friends. We have gotten through the darkest times like Harvey and celebrated the best of life welcoming our babies and raising our children. Thank you for being my family away from home.

To all of our viewers, thank you for allowing me into your home every morning. It has been my greatest honor and an opportunity that I have held close to my heart.  Houston, a piece of you will always be with  me!"

She posted this tweet, joking about the bad weather lately.
