After spending the past five years forecasting in the Dallas\u2013Fort Worth area, he says he and his family are excited to return to Houston and make it home again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">And when it comes to severe weather, Collin has seen plenty of it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">A graduate of the University of Oklahoma, Collin studied aerospace engineering, meteorology, and advanced theoretical physics. While living in Oklahoma, he experienced the devastating 2013 Moore EF5 tornado-an event that reinforced his commitment to television weather and the importance of providing clear, accurate information when lives may be at risk.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">He\u2019s also an experienced storm chaser who has documented 14 tornadoes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">During his previous time in Houston, Collin worked at KTRK and KRIV. He then spent five years in Dallas\u2013Fort Worth, forecasting and anchoring through severe weather, tornadoes, and major winter storms, with stops at CBS Dallas\u2013Fort Worth and WFAA.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">But there\u2019s much more to Collin than weather maps and storm tracks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">He and his wife have two children, with another baby on the way\u2014and somehow still have room at home for four dogs. When he\u2019s not watching the skies, you\u2019ll likely find him spending time with his family, following the NFL, at the gym, cooking, or enjoying the outdoors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">For Collin, joining KPRC 2 isn\u2019t simply another move in his career. It\u2019s a return to a community he already knows and a place his family is ready to call home again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Welcome back to Houston, Collin- and welcome to KPRC 2!<\/p>\n<p>Breaking News Alerts<img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" role=\"presentation\"  style=\"object-fit:cover;width:234px;height:50px\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1788777731_703_kprc_breaking.png\" width=\"234\" height=\"50\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf eUxjKG\">More Stories Like This In Our Email Newsletter<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 by KPRC Click2Houston &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There\u2019s a familiar face returning to Houston weather.
