The Big Story on Action News is an Addition to the Weather Team
Howard Eskin has a new meteorologist to go after when they get the forecast wrong:

A brief Googling reveals that Domschke is a Chicago native who went to Ball State. She comes to us from WKYC in Cleveland, so Chicago –> Cleveland –> Philadelphia should complete the “cold and shitty” weather triumvirate.
Crossing Broad supporter Victor Fiorillo shared an interesting Domschke nugget at Philly Mag:
Prior to Cleveland, Domschke worked in the Norfolk area. She’s originally from Chicago. No word on if she’s a Bears fan. (Then again, is anyone these days?) But her parents actually did name her after the late Chicago Bears legend Walter Payton.
Let’s give Payton a warm Philadelphia welcome. Then we’ll go to Dann Cuellar live with the latest. Good evening, Dann.
