So is Browns weather pattern in Las Vegas, where on Tuesday he became the second meteorologist to work all four network affiliates in Las Vegas. The Janison family moved to Las Vegas in 1994 and proudly moved to News 3 in 2007. He also likes science fiction, like Star Wars, and enjoys all Ohio sports - especially Cincinnati sports (Who Dey!!?). Kevin Janison has held the National Weather Association Seal of Approval since 1985. Outside of the job, Ethan loves the outdoors and doing things like kayaking and hiking. What sparked this passion was a phenomena called “snow rollers,” which occurs after snow has fallen and the top layer of snow briefly melts just enough so when wind or gravity moves it, the snow begins to roll up and eventually makes any yard look like it is covered in small bails of snow! Growing up in the Cincinnati area, with the fascinating weather we receive, Ethan was inspired not only by the changing conditions but also by watching Steve Horstmeyer talk about the science behind cool weather things such as snow rollers!! This undoubtedly got Ethan hooked into wanting to be in this career field. It was a night Ethan will never forget and he is thankful to be alive - especially after a strong EF-3 tornado ripped through Bowling Green, Kentucky and missed the WBKO studio by 900 yards and missed his apartment by 300 yards.Įthan has always enjoyed weather and climate, as it has been a passion of his since he was 6 years old. They were forced to track large, destructive tornadoes without any radar at their disposal and Ethan resorted to hand-drawing warning polygons and what radar looked like, to the best of his abilities.

While Ethan enjoyed his time in the Commonwealth, he also experienced a historical and traumatizing event - covering the Tornado Outbreak of December 10-11 of 2021.

In 2020, during the pandemic, Ethan moved to Bowling Green, Kentucky to work at WBKO as the morning meteorologist for south central Kentucky.
