Andrea joined the FOX43 Weather Smart team back in January of 2013, and she was named Chief Meteorologist at FOX43 in September 2024. You can catch her weekdays at 4, 5, and 10 P.M.
She’s loved everything involving the wonders and whys of weather since age 10. Her love for weather led her to Penn State, where she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Meteorology in 2009. She spent her first three years in Binghamton, NY at two television stations, working at FOX40 WICZ-TV and WBNG-TV. She experienced record-breaking lake effect snow, severe weather, snow storms, and more! In April 2024, Andrea received her certification from the American Meteorological Society.
Andrea has many interests, but she particularly loves "Family Fun Night" every Friday night. She explores the food and flavors of small businesses throughout Central Pa. with her husband, Myke, and daughter, Ava, at her side. During her spare time, she enjoys cooking! She's always trying new recipes or old ones with a new twist! Catch her Seasonal Servings segment on Tuesdays for some inspiration! When she's not cooking, Andrea's chasing around five rabbits with five very different personalities—Oreo Doppler, Apollo Thunder, Stormy Cocoa, Maple Sky, and Peppermint Frost!
Andrea was more than happy to return to Pennsylvania! She grew up in a small suburb just outside Philadelphia, so she’s always cheering on the Phillies, the Eagles, and the Penn State Nittany Lions!
If you have any questions, she’s more than happy to hear from you! Send an e-mail (amichaels@fox43.com), or find her on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok to share in her weather fun!
