DAYTON — After three years of keeping viewers up to date on weather conditions in the Dayton area, Storm Center 7 Meteorologist Dontae Jones is leaving his position with WHIO-TV to move closer to home.
Jones grew up in Akron, Ohio and has accepted a position in Cleveland.
“I am beyond excited to move back closer to family and to work for a station that is a dominant leader in the market.” Dontae Jones said. “I will be able to work alongside journalists that I watched when I was younger and inspired me to get into the biz”.
Dontae has been with WHIO-TV since December of 2018 and quickly became a viewer favorite.
Tune in for his official announcement on TV on News Center 7 at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, November 17.
A nationwide search is under way to find his replacement.
