Jim Kosek is the senior meteorologist at AccuWeather.com and is quite possibly the most insane weatherman in the US. Love him or hate him, he makes the weather interesting.

I had a tough time watching the whole video. That is the most annoying TV personality I’ve ever seen or heard. Personally it seems more like an attention grabbing ploy than anything else. I suppose if it works for them more power to them, but it certainly doesn’t work for me.
really? You need to lighten up Francis.
Hey Jim, your description of that weather guy, would fit about anyone at Burning Man….
Was this a late April Fool’s joke? This was a joke, right?
Thanks for posting this interview. I love this guy.
I think some of you who don’t like him aren’t seeing the whole picture here. He’s not full throttle the whole time – it’s sprinkled in randomly, depending on how he feels or what the weather is doing. He’s an experienced meteorologist, so many times his forecasts are fairly straight forward.
But he can make a lousy morning more fun and make you unexpectedly laugh. That is priceless. Just ask all those who petitioned Accuweather.com to get him back on the Delaware Valley area forecasts last year!
