Leigh Spann is a local meterologist for Tampa Bay's news channel 8 "On Your side." She is a very able meteorologist with a beautiful smile.
Leigh Spann joined WFLA in September, 2007. You can see her every Saturday and Sunday on the Channel 8 6 pm & 11 pm newscasts. She came here from the sister station, WCBD, in Charleston, SC where she was the morning and noon meteorologist.
While at WCBD, she received the Award of Merit for South Carolina Weathercaster of the Year. Leigh has also worked at WMAZ in Macon, GA.
While living in Charleston, Leigh worked during several hurricanes and tropical storms that made landfall along the South Carolina coast.
Leigh earned the Certified Broadcast Meteorologist (CBM) designation in 2008.
She also has the National Weather Association Broadcast Seal of Approval.
Spann, 32, joined WFLA in 2007. "I am a morning person and so I've always wanted to be on a weekday morning newscast in a major market."
"I feel really comfortable in mornings and waking up at 2 a.m. is no problem for me," she said.
Spann said she also will be doing news stories relating to science, technology and the environment.
Leigh graduated from the University of Georgia with a BS in Geography and a certificate of Atmospheric Science. She graduated Magna Cum Laude and was one of the first people at UGA to graduate with the Atmospheric Science certificate.
Leigh lives in Tampa with her husband, who works as a producer at WFLA.
The Rightardia staff always lights up when they see the outgoing Leigh on Channel 8. We suspect bigger things are in store for the lovely meteorologist.
