“The turnout and hospitality has been amazing in all of the locations we have done this show,” Tony Getts, director of creative services for KMOV Channel 4, said. “This is our fourth and last one. People couldn’t be any nicer and are so welcoming. They brought gifts, food and treats. It just reaffirms your feelings about people in humanity, doing these shows.”

Getts guessed the six meteorologists spend 50-70 hours putting the show together.

“Those involved review the show after it is done and make adjustments to make it more entertaining after the first city,” he said. “It is a great program.”
