A meteorologist from North Texas has joined the weather team at Fox 4 (KDFW-TV).
Josh Johns, a Cleburne native, started at the Dallas station this week. He will be working the weekend evening shift and three days during the week, a spokesperson for the station said. He’ll also team up with Fox 4’s chief meteorologist, Dan Henry, in the evenings during severe weather events.
Johns comes to Dallas from Waco, where he worked for over six years at 25 News (KXXV-TV), most recently as a weekday morning meteorologist. He previously worked at KSAN-TV and KLST-TV in San Angelo and graduated from Texas A&M University with a degree in meteorology.
“I’ve always had the desire to forecast for my hometown, those I grew up with, and my family,” he wrote in a Facebook post last month, announcing his new job at Fox 4. “Few get that opportunity, and I feel truly blessed and humbled,” he added.

He isn’t the only new face from North Texas to join the station recently. Meteorologist Berkeley Taylor, a Mansfield native, began there last month.
Their additions follow the departures of meteorologists Julia Fife (in December), Evan Andrews (in October) and Dylan Federico (in July). Meteorologist Kylie Capps also recently moved from her weekend morning shift to working weekdays at 4 p.m.
