Amber Alexander returns to forecasting the weather as a central Iowa meteorologist
Amber Alexander is making a comeback. The former meteorologist and digital content producer at WHO-13 who left the station last July returns to weather forecasting, this time in a part-time position with Iowa Everywhere as chief meteorologist.
“I'll be focusing on the weekend and work week forecasts twice a week and then doing lifestyle forecasts and updates for severe weather when that happens,” Alexander told the Des Moines Register.
Iowa Everywhere brings a locally owned, on-demand podcast network.
After Alexander left WHO-13, she joined Kinship Brewery in Waukee as the director of community engagement.
She worked at WHO-13 for more than six years.

Alexander starts at Iowa Everywhere in early August. She's also expecting her first child, due on Oct. 2.
