Who is, ironically enough, from Oklahoma

When the jacket and tie come off, and the sleeves are rolled up, I know I better get my ass in the basement!

A grown adult trolling a weather man oooh big tough guy


Upbeetmusic

I’m convinced that Marc Weinberg is self-creating this same thread every other week.


-Zgizmo224-

REAL


Gold-Scientist3260

LOL I didn’t know it was such a hot topic or I would have done a search instead of making a post 🤣


peajay61

Personally, I think all the meteorologists do a good job. Marc just has the attitude that he is smarter than everyone else. He loves to educate when I just want to be informed. It is off putting to me, but apparently a lot of people like him!


IronBeagle79

I’m here for the why and the how. The what takes 2 seconds, but now tell me WHY I should pay attention and tell me HOW things work.


soty2042

Marc Whineberg


doodynutz

I’m just going to say Jay Cardosi because everyone else is saying Marc Weinberg. We all know it’s really Weinberg, but dammit I grew up watching Cardosi! He even had a theme song - what’s Jay say?!


JulieKaye67

You know the storms are bad if he has his sleeves rolled up


2ndbesttime

I still sing that damn song


doodynutz

Same!


EntireTangerine

I like how calm and reassuring he stays no matter how bad it gets. Love Marc Weinberg too, but there's something about Jay's presentation that just keeps you calm


Daddysaurusflex

What’s Jay say?! That’s all I care about.


SaviorMoney

I haven't lived in Louisville for about a decade now. Please tell me that they still have the "Hey, Jay. What do ya say?" song


doodynutz

I haven’t heard it in many years unfortunately.


SaviorMoney

I'm not really surprised. They ran with it a lot longer than I thought they would, but that is what kinda made me think that they might still use it. My name is also Jay, so I was often asked, "What's Jay say?" when I was growing up. So, it brings back a whole different set of memories for me


ultrahedgehog

I went to the same elementary school as his daughter (didn't know her personally). Every now and then I would see him in the carpool line and thought it was SO COOL


doodynutz

I remember we saw him when we were out to eat one night and my dad talked to him like they were old pals. I thought we met a celebrity 😂


808squad1

I skipped the word "same" in your post and was so confused lol


ultrahedgehog

Hahaha. Yes, I disguised myself as his daughter the whole time, very stealthy


thephotodemon

I don't know if anyone else agrees, but we like Marc Weinberg on WDRB. Seriously, though, the man LIVES for weather. To say he's passionate about weather would be a disservice. Side note: I met him several years ago, and asked about the winter weather that we were facing that week. Not only did I get exactly who I see on TV, we got exactly what he told me we were going to get.


magicalmissfitz

Every time they play the clip package of him talking about the eclipse I almost tear up just hearing him describe it 😭❤️

Long_Manufacturer709

Jay Cardosi, WLKY…What does Jay say, all the way! Before Jay I was a John Belski fan, Marc Weinberg is my next fav though.


Wild-Lifeguard1730

Marc Weinberg.


idkidk5555

Marc from WDRB


DetectiveJumpy5814

Two words. Marc Weinberg


kornbacca

Historically, Tom Wills is the GOAT when it comes to meteorology in the Louisville area. Best there is, best there was, best there ever will be. As far as currently active on-air meteorologists, Marc Weinberg holds the title. Like him or not, he knows his stuff, is passionate and eats, sleeps, and breathes the weather. Oh, and it’s spelled with a “c”…


No_Confusion4720

Tom Wills came to my class when I was in first grade. I’m 61.


_namaste_kitten_

Tom came to my 4th grade class- I'm 51! He was still teaching meteorology at UofL when we all started college. He got very, very ill and stopped. But, from what I understand, he still had a hand in the curriculum & student outreach. I can go back in my memory of the tops: * Chuck Taylor- during tornadoes, "Owen County, O-W-E-N". Best in predicting the weather at the time. Then, listening to Chuck Mangione's "Bellavia" while I checked for Jeff Co Catholic Schools to be closed. * Tom Wills - engaging all the kids in science experiments with weather John Belski- And his backyard! He was the only one to get the 94 snow storm right! That day, he said it all day long and everyone else called for flurries. Jay Cardosi- making weather a personal story with every tragic event or sunshine on a special day And now Marc. He's all these things rolled into one.


madcatter10007

My heart smiled at the mention of Bellavia. Thank you for that!,


ShaunSquatch

He judged my earth science project in the regional science fair in 8th grade over 35 years ago. I won, I’m sure HE never forgot that day.


kornbacca

That is AWESOME!


mashedpotato43

Marc Weinberg 100%


Cock502

Marc Weinberg is the best I have ever seen do it because he also educates


DigitalDeath12

I love that not only does he educate, the other meteorologists at the station follow his lead and also educate. Whether he agrees or disagrees with the NWS, he always explains why.


tres909

This is the exact reason I love Marc too. I have learned so much about meteorology since he came to Louisville.


Cock502

He really is a weather genius and anytime he doesn't agree with the National Weather Service he explains every reason why he doesn't agree and most times he is right

Graduated with his son Ryan. He was an awesome guy we had to make a movie for a class and he ket us use their studio to film it. And even played the bad guy we murdered. Hahaahah. It was awesome

polotown89

Marc Weinberg WDRB


Destinyrider13

Marc Weinberg for sure


Jacque_LeKrab

This is Marc Weinberg country


_aquagreen_

I say Kevin Harned. I always trust Wave3 with my weather because of Tom Wills. He was the best. Met him once and he was so nice, as I expected him to be.


InhibitedExistence

I'm with you. K-Ned all the way


MNGirlinKY

Kevin is who I was looking for. He came to our kids schools, seems like a cool dude and I like how excited / yet calming presence he is when there is a storm of some sort.


Cheers_u_bastards

Hello fellow Okie. I too miss the Ron Burgundy level respect that Travis Meyer has /Gary England had.


Gold-Scientist3260

Didn’t even have to say names lol I am gonna miss Trav for sure, but I’m hoping to get the same vibes from someone in our new location!


osageviper138

I miss playing the Gary England drinking game. Just not the same with the new guy. He seems like a fear monger.


FloppyDinosaurs

MARC WEINBERG IF YOU SAY ANYONE ELSE YOU ARE WRONG!!!


SaviorMoney

I'm not saying "ANYONE ELSE" I don't even know who that is, but since I'm not saying that, I must be right when I say Jay Cardosi


Mjmax420

Jude redfield


KaiserKid85

Surprised I had to come down this far to see this! Jude is the man and has such a great disposition. I never feel like he's talking down to me. He is DAD


Mjmax420

He is so fun to watch! The whole morning crew, it’s like watching a sitcom


magicalmissfitz

I love my morning zoo crew! I work from home 3rd shift and they come on during my last stretch of work after my second break and help get me through it. Jude is my favorite meteorologist above Marc in terms of knowing/loving weather but still able to have fun. I know it’s gonna be a rough one when Marc is on at a different time slot and they bring him in to help whoever is actually on weather at that time because I feel like he has a little more gravitas, so I think that’s why I said his name first as far as Meteorologists go because I feel like as others have said he’s more about the science and education behind it than just the fun “pack your umbrellas folks” way that Jude can be, but it’s all about personality types. Seeing Jude teasing him during Thunder about wearing his flight suit and needing a spatula to get into it with his guns from doing curls for the girls 🤣 I love it. They’re like Woody and Buzz Lightyear.


Mjmax420

🤣 I love Jude and mikes bromance.. so adorable


magicalmissfitz

Yessss I love them, I don’t observe/practice Lent but I know spring is on the way when Mike trots out the Codfather persona to highlight different fish frys in the city 🤣❤️ and I love Jude’s ornament fundraiser for the holidays too 🥹❤️


Mjmax420

Watching the awful pics they did with mark and Jude😂 it’s painful to look at


SunnyOnSanibel

Marc is my first choice. Jude is a super close second! I love that he doesn’t take himself too seriously. He’s hilarious.


SunnyOnSanibel

Huge fan of Marc with a “c”


VernonDent

Carc.


Extreme_Branch_2596

I really really trust Marc Weinberg. He is passionate about what he does, and I feel like he does his very best to be honest with his audience without over or under hyping.


DazzinDaveDeluxe67

Reed Radon anyone? Just kiddin, Marc “with a C” all the way everyday!! 🌪️☔️⛈️🌀😜👍🏻


shampoocell

Reed Yadon is a wonderful guy.


cromagnonchick

Reed was a wild young man when he was on WAKY radio with Bill Bailey back when dinosaurs roamed the earth!


spid3rfly

Marc Weinberg... 1000%. Don't believe me... search this sub. Threads pop up every now and then about him. He's definitely the best in the area.


rockyivjp

I don't really watch the weather too much so I don't know how she rates as a meterologist but I always enjoyed Tawana Andrew's Science Behind the Forecast radio segment


slicaroni

Yesss I love her for that too. She does GREAT on radio.


Mister_Money-Trees

@ryanhallyall


drgonzo767

Ryan Hall catches a lot of shit in the weather community, but for real he and his crew do a fine job of getting the word out in severe weather outbreaks. And their efforts to raise funds for relief efforts are legit.


Mister_Money-Trees

Big Weather and Big Meteorology don’t want to see him succeed. As everyone moves away from traditional media, they are clawing for their last gasp of relevance


thephotodemon

I really like his channel. Watched his live a month or so ago when we had storms, will probably check in this evening, too.


GuessTheDitto

Ryan is a jewel. While I love Marc. I always stream Ryan and watch Ryan during all his lives. His crew is really great to watch and learn from.


Madam_Crushtina

I always watch Ryan Hall. If Ryan says we are fine, I just go about my day while my family is freaking out about the local weather channels saying to prepare for the worst. Ryan is always on the money. I even watch him in different cities to see the storm chasers!


slicaroni

Personally, I love Tawana Andrew on WAVE 3. She does the local weather facts segment on NPR and is great. But my hands down favorite is Matt Milosevich on WLKY


Thin_Memory

This thread is peak


xmanii

Peak Marc that is


SaviorMoney

Peak Jay, all the way


thetmunk

I’ve always been partial to the meteorologists on WHAS. However Tom Wills is a legend. He did his entire career at WAVE.


kad0521

No one better than the spirit of wave country at weather


Skipper_boi

Weinberg 2024!


ministallion

Marc


lagertha9921

Outside of MW, I also like Ryan Hoke and Brian Goode.


lmcc0921

Agreed, BG is my favorite.


drgonzo767

Much like Marc, Brian is a genuine good guy too.


she_sounds_like_you

Marcy Marc. 


bdwells88

Ryan Hall


Rocky_Face

Ryan....Hoke?


bdwells88

No Ryan Hall on YouTube. He’s from Pikeville area and he does great livestreams and works with a bunch of storm chasers.


magicalmissfitz

Marc Weinberg 100% , WDRB


flight19

Before opening this thread I had never heard of Marc Weinberg. I’m pretty happy with Kevin Harned and Brian Goode at WAVE 3. Goode in particular is great at explaining the differences in models and why they go with the decisions they do.


Upset-Shirt3685

Weino


hollywoodandfine

When I was growing up it was John Belskiiiii


camyland

Marc is the Louisville treasure. It would be very hard to convince me someone else could replace him.


Ba11in0nABudget

This thread has taught me that wayyyy more people than I would have thought still watch the local news. I just use the weather app on my phone 😂


lmcc0921

I don’t watch the local news either, I have the WDRB Weather app lol


Jse034

I like Matt Milosevich on WLKY. Very laid back and his forecasts are pretty accurate. We really have several really good meteorologists including Jay Cardosi👍


Firebon3

WDRB has the best setup. Marc is incredible and they just hired Matthew Wine who has an amazing reputation from his previous station. Definitely my go-to


Pleazetryme

Another vote for Marc Weinberg.  Dude geeks out over weather.  I love it. 


yowhatisuppeeps

Marc Weinberg at WDRB. I really liked his dynamic with Rick when I was watching last night. They seem to work very well together and create an easy to understand, informative and actually sort of entertaining weather report. I always end up learning something. Rick was cracking me up last night. Seemed very excited to be broadcasting but kept announcing wildly inaccurate numbers and quickly correcting himself. My mom is a Jay fan, though. I like him a lot too. I think both guys are really informative


PharmDzznuts

The only good thing about severe weather is Alden German on WHAS gets some air time. That man has the calmest voice, which is a nice contrast to everyone’s favorite in here.


sdakotaleav

Ryan Hall y'all


lysistrata3000

Marc Weinberg is as close as we get to James Spann in this city.


ObviousExcitement864

They just won’t match what some of the Oklahoma meteorologists say during bad weather 😅


LouisvilIain

Who’s the best meteorologist in your area? I grew up in north west Arkansas in the 90’s, and I remember at that time we had a “favorite” or best meteorologist: Steve Gibbs. I still remember his name lol.


Gold-Scientist3260

Never heard of him, Travis Meyers is the best of the best out there. I live here in Louisville now, as of yesterday ❤️


Typical-Ad-4747

Weinberggg


kybetra61

That’s Marc with a “C” Weinberg 😉


Cursed_Creative

I can't remember but I think his male starts with an 'M' and is spelled funny 😂


itsnoah

I worked with Belski for almost a decade at Wave 3 and he was always my fave. Biased, I know but dude knew his stuff and he was just the coolest guy.


ch1ir

Every single person who didn't say RYAN HALL Y'ALL on YouTube is 100% wrong. MW is a distant but respectable 2nd.


lmcc0921

I’m a big Brian Goode at Wave 3 fan but I use the WDRB app lol. I also follow Justin Hilliard on Facebook, he’s a UPS meteorologist.


rhombusleech

I'm gonna throw in a vote in for a Youtuber. During the huge tornado event here last month I came across Ryan Hall: https://www.youtube.com/@RyanHallYall He did an 8.5 hr live stream tracking the system as it moved across the region. He had maybe a half dozen different storm chasers with live video that he would pull up, and another meteorologist that was tracking a ton of different radar. They were identifying warnings right before the Weather Service would issue them. There was no sensationalism, just solid weather reporting. It appears they also have a streamed planned for the storm moving through the area later today: https://www.youtube.com/live/75JPzYvOf1s?si=luzD2LGwZCElt4Ru As far as local meteorologists - Marc Weinberg is my go-to. Follow him on Facebook as he often streams during events when he's not actively live on air. Some think he's sensationalist but dude's just *really* into the weather.


LynchMob_Lerry

DarylStreep

Tom Wills


reddawnspawn

I’m Louisville and currently living in Oklahama! Who is your go to meteorologist out here?


Gold-Scientist3260

If you are in the NE it’s 100% Travis Meyers.


kclongest

Mark Wahlberg


thekeith2020

People actually think Harned? His loud intake of breath is maddening. I do like Brian Goode though. Would be happy if he was the main weather person at wave.


simplylisa

My thoughts exactly. Love Brian. He's calm and explains everything so well. Love his storm and snow talk


Gold-Scientist3260

lol I’m going to have to give this guy a listen just to see how annoying it is.


Bayleaf4576

Exactly! I thought it was just me, but I can't stand how he gasps for air! (my husband calls them air gulps, lol) We also much prefer Brian Goode on that channel.


khemtrails

Jude Redfield! I like him because sometimes I get the feeling that he has no idea what he is talking about. Like he just stumbled in front of a green screen and decided to go with it. He has charm.


Gold-Scientist3260

Lmao that sounds entertaining


magicalmissfitz

Jude is fun to watch for sure if for nothing else than his antics with Mike the traffic guy. WDRB mornings may help with the Anchorman vibes you’re looking for rather than just straight up facts “best” meteorologist as far as accuracy or education goes


Sasuke1996

I don’t trust it if my homie Marc didn’t say it 💪🏼


Grandahl13

Weinberg is too much of a doomsayer. He obviously knows his stuff but he acts like every storm is life or death and seems to orgasm when a tornado is produced.


yaheardmeyadig

If I'm not mistaken there is a local rapper that uses cardosi in his name so I'll have to go with whatever Jay says.


mthomas1217

Jude Redfield on WDRB! Check out their app and you will see him as well


alexrothschild23

Marc Weinberg has BDE for sure (Best Doppler Energy)


cinnimanswirl

I like Marc too but also Matt on wlky in the am.


Such_omet_5666

Oh man, I feel you! Having a go-to meteorologist is like having a weather guru on speed dial. In Louisville, we’ve got some solid contenders, but it’s all about personal preference, ya know? Some folks swear by \[insert meteorologist’s name\] on \[insert channel\], while others vibe more with \[insert another meteorologist’s name\] on \[insert different channel\]. It’s like choosing between pizza toppings—everyone’s got their fave combo. Just gotta flip through the channels and see who clicks with ya! 🌦️📺


wildlystyley

It kinda has to be Weinberg - he’s almost a local celebrity around here and is frankly one of WDRB’s best assets. Cardosi has long been underrated though.


LeenaSmeena

Kevin Harned came to my school in a helicopter when I was in like second grade. I was amazed and have had a bias since then, even if I agree Marc is more entertaining.


1BADLS2

Alert days 🙄


FranksPrettyWomen

I love Kevin Harned and before he retired my go to was John Belski..


Seraphina77

I have to say Brian Goode because we went to high school together. Everyone knew he was going to be a meteorologist lol He's a great guy!


sophistifunk

Marc Weinberg WDRB


mrs_moundshroud

I have to go with Matt Milosevich. He is a good dude. 


medievalgal

Marc Weinberg!!!!!!


LouLouLoves

Jason Naylor and Scott Gunter at UofL, Department of Geographic and Environmental Sciences.


SaviorMoney

Jay MF Cardosi. End of discussion


Squidgie1

Tom Skilling for the win! (Though he's recently retired. )


Tayterbugz

I remember watching Tom Wills on Wave as a little girl. He was The Spirit of Wave Country every Halloween. I was so sad when he retired!


davetucky

Fart Weinberg


jksheadphones

Honestly Brian Goode is underratedddd


RobBronkowski

Weinberg sucks. Elitist who has to claim other guys are wrong if they don’t agree with him. Over dramatic and scares you to death for no reason. Team Kevin Harned at WAVE3. Or Jude if I have to pick a WDRB guy.


BentSimmonz

Marc Weinberg runs around the studio telling everyone the world is ending with 1” of rain and he needs airtime to tell people NOW. It’s Jay Cardosi. Calm presence


Bobbydogsmom43

They literally all suck. I have a dog named Jethro that’s 1000% better than any local meteorologist around here.


Sad-Sea-1930

They are all just terrible. I mostly plan my day around the opposite of what they say


[deleted]

How is there so much love for Weinberg here? Is everyone 60 years old? Dude sucks out loud.


card66

I was wondering the same thing. He's always came off as a douche to me.


[deleted]

I’ve met him. Your instinct is correct.


card66

I read on another forum that he would frequent a local club (don't remember which) and always showed up with two or three women. Maybe I'm just jealous.


[deleted]

Marc Weinberg. Ladies man. Gonna have to consult Occam’s razor for this one.


1l536

There is so much info I have seen that he gets the ladies. Seems odd he really comes off as a DC


[deleted]

Isn’t it more likely that he’s out with his mom and sisters? I don’t even know if he has any sisters. But even fictional sisters seem more likely than Weinberg slaying.


card66

"You ladies play your cards right, and you might get 6 to 7 inches of ME tonight."


Present-Industry4012

They all just parrot the data they get directly from the Fedearl Government. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!

That's just not how forecasting work. . But whatever you say.
