From Seattle to Chicago

KCPQ Met Tim Joyce is resurfacing at Nexstar’s WGN in Chicago as the Weekend Morning News weather anchor.

“Tim grew up in the suburb of Oak Park, and is a natural fit for WGN,” commented Dominick Stasi, WGN News Director.  “Tim has a passion for weather and forecasting that will help our viewers plan their weekends.”

WGN says that before joining WGN-TV, Joyce was a meteorologist and reporter for Q13 News (KCPQ-TV) in Seattle for almost ten years, which included duties as Chief Meteorologist for their Portland sister station, CW32 TV (KRCW-TV). He also reported on environmental, transportation and quality-of-life issues. Previously he held various meteorologist positions at KIRO 7 News in Seattle; KOIN Local 6 News in Portland; and KTMR NewsSource 16 and KVAL 13 in Eugene, Oregon. Joyce got his first taste of broadcasting from the NewsScene television program at Oak Park & River Forest High School where he was a writer, producer and on-air commentator.

He starts later this month.
