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.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
