Schack shucks WFAA8 to take top meteorologist job in old Kentucky home

By ED BARK
Jennifer Schack, weekend meteorologist at Dallas-based WFAA8, will be leaving the station after her last shift on March 7th to become the head forecaster at ABC station WTVQ-TV in Lexington, KY.

She sent news of her move via an email Wednesday to unclebarky.com.

"I know viewers always get frustrated when TV talent move on and they are not informed," Schack said. "So I wanted to quickly update you."

Schack, who joined WFAA8 in October, 2008, grew up in California, KY and graduated with a degree in Independent Studies: Meteorology from Thomas More College in Crestview Hills, KY. She came to WFAA8 after working four-plus years at 6 News, an independent TV station in Lawrence, Kansas.

"It has been an honor and a pleasure serving North Texas," Schack said. "I feel immensely blessed for my time here."
