Taylor Plott joined the Tennessee Valley Weather team in 2025, bringing with him a wide range of experience covering everything from tornado outbreaks to blizzards and bone-chilling Arctic air. His first full-time role in television weather began in late 2016 at KGWN in Cheyenne, Wyoming, where he served as weekend meteorologist and weekday reporter. During his time there, he even stepped in to anchor sports. One of his most notable moments on air came during the historic June 12, 2017 tornado outbreak—one of the worst in Wyoming’s history—where he played a major role in the station’s wall-to-wall coverage.
After his time out West, Taylor returned home to Alabama, working at CBS 42 in Birmingham. He also contributed to weather coverage at WVUA in Tuscaloosa and worked as a meteorologist at Baron Weather in Huntsville. Taylor earned his meteorology degree from Mississippi State University.
Born and raised in Huntsville, Taylor is no stranger to the dynamic and often volatile weather patterns of Alabama and the Tennessee Valley. His deep familiarity with the region adds valuable insight to his forecasting.
When he’s not tracking storms, Taylor enjoys spending time with his wife and family, playing golf, and enjoying outdoor sports. He’s also an avid supporter of Crimson Tide athletics and the Atlanta Braves.
