(read below post first) I convinced the News Director to allow me to do a series on Hurricanes. A few clips follow on the video. In doing the research, I realized we were all "sitting ducks", and I didn't want to be there when the next one came, just being"part-time". 2 years later, Hurricane Andrew screamed ashore. The station was running my preparedness packages on the air as "Andrew" was approaching. The last clip I put together and presented during my last show, my farewell on WCIX-TV.
This video includes the "News Open" for "Channel 6 Action News" from 1990. (A few years after this, CBS swapped signals with Channel 4, becoming WFOR-TV, but the programming still originates from the old WCIX studios on 8900 NW 18th Terrace in Miami). That's followed by one weathercast in full, a few more weather intro's and outro's. The only way I could get out of Miami, and the part-time gig, was to have some "reporting" on my demo tape.
Great clip. Thanks for posting.

Don't miss the 'farewell' music video clip - if you can't wait for it, go to time code 9:41 on the clip ": )
