WLFI's chief meteorologist Mike Prangley will soon be leaving the station after ten years of excellent weather reporting. Mike's last day will be May 1. He is moving to Florida to allow his wife to pursue a career advancement.
"This is an unexpected move," said Prangley, "I couldn't have asked for a better TV station to work for over the last 10 years. But, this is a great opportunity for my family."
Many at the station will miss Mike Prangley's positive presence and great work.
"We will miss Mike's passion for forecasting and making our community a better place. He has worked around the clock to keep us alert and safe. Also, Mike has volunteered many hours for community events and school talks," said Chris Morisse, WLFI's news director.
WLFI is in the process of interviewing qualified broadcast meteorologists to replace Mike Prangley.
Mike has been like a brother to me. We have been through so much through the years we have worked together. Mike has done so much in the community, including the MDA telethon, Habitat for Humanity Building, March of Dimes walk, school visits and more. We'll talk more about Mike's departure when it gets closer to his last day.
