Nick Gunter Email & Phone Number

I'm a native of Florence, Alabama, but have called many other places besides the Tennessee Valley home. I've also lived in the West Texas town of El Paso and in the Arkansas Delta Town of Marion. Living in these three cities, each with very different climatic conditions, steered me in the direction of meteorology. After high school, I moved to Starkville, Mississippi and spent four years at Mississippi State University where I graduated Cum Laude with a bachelor’s degree in geosciences, majoring in broadcast meteorology and minoring in communication. While at Mississippi State, I was an active member of the East Mississippi Chapter of the NWA/AMS.My first job was working at WTVA-TV in Tupelo, Mississippi during my senior year at Mississippi State. During my time in North Mississippi I kept viewers safe during the tornado outbreak in April 2014. After I graduated from MSU, he landed my next job at WTOK-TV in Meridian, Mississippi where for three years I was the morning meteorologist and reporter. While in Meridian, I helped forecast several tornado outbreaks, including the Collinsville tornado of February 2016, along with active tropical seasons and even winter weather in the south. My time at both WTVA and WTOK gave me valuable experience in how to not only track severe storms but how to deliver an accurate forecast that is easy to understand. I then continued my career at the station that ultimately made me become a meteorologist, WMC Action News 5 in Memphis, Tennessee. After three years in Memphis, I am now looking for new opportunities to continue my career in the world of weather. When not forecasting the weather, I enjoy spending time with his family and friends, cheering for the Mississippi State Bulldogs and Auburn Tigers. I also enjoy traveling to new places across the country and globe.
