For Katie Boer, weather isn’t filler. It’s information people rely on. “Forecasting in the desert is different. Heat, wind, and extremes change fast, and people depend on you getting it right,” says Boer.
Boer approaches her work with a scientist’s discipline and a communicator’s clarity. She sees her role “is to take something complex and make it usable. If people don’t understand it, I haven’t done my job.” Her goal isn’t to impress, but to inform without overwhelming.
On air, her energy is focused and accessible. She connects easily with viewers, especially those encountering desert weather patterns for the first time.
Clear-eyed and deeply invested in accuracy, Katie Boer represents a generation of meteorologists who understand that trust is built forecast by forecast.
