JORDAN WITZEL

Jordan Witzel, Global News Calgary's meteorologist, has been named the Best TV Personality in Calgary once again. Originally from Vancouver, Jordan moved to Drayton Valley to begin his radio career, then to Manitoba to kickstart his television career, and finally to Calgary where he turned to forecast weather over the mountains for us. A philanthropist, family man and educator, Jordan uses his talents to help the less fortunate and tutor others in math and science. You can also catch Jordan on News Talk 770 (CHQR) in the mornings.

As a well-known fixture in the Global News morning shows, Jordan is missed when he's not around. On May 9th, he published the following statement on his Twitter account after being absent from his position:

"I have taken a leave for deeply personal reasons and at this time have not set a return date to work. I will be back, but until then thanks for understanding and respecting my privacy and that of my family with the acceptance that not everything belongs in a public space."

Therefore at this time, you can best support Jordan Witzel by allowing him and his family some privacy as they spend time together. We look forward to the day when his antics can be seen on the Global News morning show once again.
