Kristine, noooo, all that leaves us with is Pete Delkus!

DALLAS — Meteorologist Kristine Kahanek breaks the news on her blog: After 7 years at Channel 11 KTVT-TV, her last day was Friday.

Highlights from the posting as follows:

There will be little fanfare on the air, and no long good-byes ….and that’s okay.

It’s bitter and it’s sweet.

Since the decision was made earlier this week, I am still pinching myself wondering if all that’s happening is real ... Broadcast television is a tough place right now. Like so many industries, with the economic downturn, revenue in down, and companies are restructuring and downsizing. This all needs to happen, and my position at the station is a casualty of the times. ... I’m not going anywhere…This site will be my forum..and my way of reaching out and listening to you.

I still love to forecast, and I’d like to continue to do that in some capacity. Who knows, maybe I’ll start up my own forecast page and work with those who need a customized forecast for events and venues around North Texas. Who knows, the sky is the limit, and I’m looking forward to the peace of a new path outside of TV.

Wishing you all Sunshine and Rainbows…always

Sunshine and Rainbows! That's so meteorological.

KK will be missed, she hasnt had alot of breathing room since Larry Mowry move into her territory. I have a feeling shes going to do well outside TV, as she had true talent and skill.
