Spotlight Presentation: WBZ Meteorologist Jacob Wycoff: Climate Change in New England

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jacob Wycoff is a meteorologist at WBZ-TV who contributes to weekend mornings on WBZ-TV.

Growing up in Northeast Ohio, Jacob got hooked on weather at a very early age. In the spring of 1993, there was the "Storm of the Century" Blizzard, burying the region under nearly two feet of snow. A month later, a small tornado touched down near his hometown and in 1996, the movie "Twister" was released, solidifying Wycoff's desire to one day become a meteorologist.

Jacob joined WBZ-TV from Western Mass News in Springfield, where he was a meteorologist for 5 years. Prior to that, Wycoff worked at EarthNetworks, the parent company for WeatherBug, where he covered multiple tropical systems and snow storms including hurricanes Earl, Irene and Isaac.

Jacob holds a bachelor's degree in operational and theoretical meteorology from Western Connecticut State University.

Jacob is a member of the National Weather Association and the American Meteorological Society.
