Back in the early 1970s, Barry ZeVan earned a reputation for delivering the weather forecast with personality. He's most remembered for poking his head into shots, waggling his eyebrows and hamming it up for the camera. We asked him how a few of today's local forecasters stack up when it comes to delivering fun with the forecast.
Disclaimer: ZeVan insists he likes and respects all of these people, therefore nothing less than 2 1/2 eyebrow waggles will be given.

He's personable, knows his stuff and has just a great personality. He's with it and hip to things that are going on.

How can I diplomatically put this? I don't think she's as consistent in her delivery and explanations as she could be.
