Why you like working in the Tennessee Valley and WAAY: The Tennessee Valley is close to home (Nashville). The people here are great, it's a growing and thriving community and the mountains are close by. WAAY has a wonderful group of people and has given me a great opportunity to forecast and provide vital information during severe weather. WAAY also has the best view of the city.
