Amy moved to Central Florida from Kalamazoo, Mich., where she worked forecasting snowstorms for more than seven years at WWMT-TV. She also worked in television in South Bend, Ind. and Chicago, Ill. After many years of living in the midwest, Amy is very excited to be forecasting warm weather in the Sunshine State.
