Jeff is the chief meteorologist of WUFT and developer of WRUF-TV, a 24-hour local news, weather and sports channel where future broadcast meteorologists (students) gain real-world experience. In 2013, Jeff built out the Florida Public Radio Emergency Network (FPREN), a collaborative effort by all public radio stations in the state to keep their audiences informed of hazardous tropical weather. The service continued to expand in 2016, with the addition of two full-time meteorologists serving South Carolina public radio and televisions. Under Jeff's leadership, FPREN was nationally recognized with the rare Community Lifeline Award by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and he is regularly called upon by NPR, PBS, and BBC America during times of significant weather on the global scale.
