When I was a kid there was a weather man (WBTV I believe) named Clyde (Cloudy) McClain. Does anyone remember him?

 

Yep, I remember Clyde. He retired when I was about 10. My understanding is that great personality of his you saw on air was exactly what the guy was like in person.

 

Of the current guys, Panovich is great. You might like another's style better than his, and that's fine. He, Conklin, Thomas and Udelson are all really sharp. Panovich is the guru (not just in the Charlotte market, he's THE weather social media guru, he gives talks on it at weather geek conventions and I learned a lot from the guy), so when it comes to Facebook/Twitter/G+, if you into that, he's probably the best to follow. But even he sleeps sometimes! Really, Charlotte is blessed to have a full complement of great TV meteorologists these days.

Was he the wild man that later went to rehab ?

 

If I understand the situation correctly, he was let go by the Charlotte Fox station for uncertain reasons, then he went out to Sacramento. I believe he was in rehab for a while. He now works in El Paso Texas, where he recently got beat up by his girlfriend.

His story is entertaining, if nothing else.
