About the program:

Northwest Weather

Matt Zaffino’s career in television stems from his love of weather. His love of weather is rooted in his love for being outdoors and in wilderness. And also, in his high school German class. It’s there that his teacher drew weather maps on the chalkboard explaining the conditions needed to create a snowstorm and get everyone out of school for a day. He’s been making weather maps ever since.

Matt is the only person that’s ever done a live television broadcast from the top of Mount Hood. Matt also reported for KGW from the Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia in 2000 and the Winter Olympics in Utah in 2002 and Vancouver in 2010. In the summer of 2004, Matt traveled to the Greenland Ice Sheet to report on climate change research, doing live radio broadcasts for KINK FM in Portland from the ice.

Hope to see you in person or online!
