Fox News Media’s streaming climate channel Fox Weather has hired Michigan native Bayne Froney to serve as an on-air meteorologist.

Froney joins Fox Weather from WLEX (Channel 18), the E. W. Scripps-owned NBC affiliate in Lexington. She arrives at Fox Weather on June 16, ahead of the start of the Atlantic hurricane season.

Before working at WLEX, Froney was a meteorologist and multimedia journalist at Scripps-owned KXXV (Channel 25, ABC) in Waco. She started her career at KERO (Channel 23, ABC) in Bakersfield, California.

“I’m looking forward to working with the talented group of meteorologists at Fox Weather,” Froney said in a statement. “I can’t wait to continue exploring my fascination with meteorology and work with some of the best in the industry.”

Fox Weather is widely supported on free, ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) platforms, including Pluto TV, Xumo Play, The Roku Channel, Samsung TV Plus, MyFree DirecTV, Vizio WatchFree Plus, Sling Freestream and LG Channels, among others.
