I feel extremely blessed that I have had the opportunity to work both in local news and national news and I am very honored to have a second opportunity to work at the network level. It is a profound experience to work through a natural disaster with your community. When I worked Tax Day, both Memorial Days, The Winter blast of 2021 and Harvey I was protecting my neighbors, my family, my community. You get to really dive deep into every forecast and above all you get to be a part of a community. ![]() I get to forecast every type of weather and there never is a quiet weather day. I love how I can stretch my forecast muscles when I’m working on a national platform. How is it going back to national from local TV after all of these years?īritta Merwin: I always felt that national and local news are like apples and oranges, I love them both but they are different. Mike McGuff: Forecasting weather on a national platform like FOX Weather is returning to your roots on cable news. Now that Merwin is in New York City and ready to start the FOX Weather stream, she was gracious enough to talk with me about her new Big Apple gig and KPRC 2 Houston memories. Stephen Morgan talks FOX Weather and FOX 26īased on the reaction I received from Houston TV viewers when Merwin signed off from KPRC 2 mornings last May, I'm sure FOX Weather will have lots of Britta fans tuning in. The free streaming service will be available on, its app, plus web connected TVs via FOX NOW, the FOX News app and Tubi. Britta Merwin is returning to the weather wall as a national meteorologist when FOX Weather debuts Monday, October 25th.
