As meteorologist since April 1999 for WDAF-TV FOX 4 News from 5-9 a.m., Don Harman helps Kansas Citians prepare for their day by providing accurate up-to-the-minute weather forecasts each weekday morning. Don comes to Missouri with seven years experience forecasting weather conditions.
At a very young age, Don became interested in weather and how it impacts people?s daily lives. Growing up in Ohio along the Ohio River, Don was witness to various extreme weather events. He remembers one winter in particular in the late 70?s when forceful blizzards blew through the East Coast. That?s when Don knew weather would be an important part of his future.
After graduating from Miami of Ohio with a Bachelor of Science degree in aeronautics and a minor in geography, Don began working in television as meteorologist for WTAP-TV in Parkersburg, West Virginia. In 1994, Don moved to Mason City, Iowa where he served as the morning and noon meteorologist at KIMT-TV, eventually becoming the station?s chief meteorologist. Don was the morning and noon meteorologist at WOWK-TV in Huntington, West Virginia just prior to joining WDAF-TV.
Don is a member of the American Meteorologist Society (AMS) and was awarded the AMS Seal of Approval, given to those broadcast meteorologists who display an excellence in presenting their weather programs to viewers in a manner that enhances the science of meteorology.
Throughout his years in television, Don has played an active role in the communities in which he worked. He especially has a passion for educating children about science and enjoys teaching them about weather. The best part of teaching weather for Don is seeing the kid?s eyes light up when they realize science can be fun.
When he?s not forecasting the weather or working with children, Don enjoys spending time outdoors. His favorite activities include hiking, camping, skiing and going to the gym. Don also collects old, restorable furniture and tinkers with radio-controlled planes. Currently, Don resides in Kansas City, Missouri.
notice his hobby of rc planes, I have sold this guy 6 planes in the last 2 yrs. He has crashed each one within a month of having it.
