JOHN CARROLL-WVIT-Did he resurface somewhere?

I see WVIT hired a new meterologist. I guess John Carroll's time there is over. Does anybody know where he went?
 
As far as I know, John was considered a freelance reporter anyways. I'm pretty certain he won't be going back to WTIC-TV. Frankly, I can't stand the guy, so good riddance! :)

By the way, who is this new person you're talking about?

I did see that there was a new weatherman on WVIT this week. He was a young fellow, I think Jeremy Schmidt was his name?

I didn't know John Carroll was a freelancer. I wonder where he'll end up now.

I heard that Dr. Mel isn't doing mornings at WTNH anymore. I wonder if they'll hire a replacement, or just keep Gill Simmons filling in.


P.S. - the same night I saw the new guy on WVIT, I saw Melissa Cole back on WFSB.
And a little Off-topic. Tom Lewis also left WVIT and is now at WTIC. Years ago, he was at WTNH.
It's like musical chairs in this market!
 
Meanwhile, I think Rich Capolla is the only one at WTIC-TV who's been with their newscast since it started in 1989.

Speaking of WTIC-TV and on-air forecasters, whatever happened to Paul Williams? Me and my brother used to call him "Smooth Ice". :)

Dr. Mel is doing the noon weather and occasional mornings. So, he's actually on a reduced schedule. I hope it's not because his health is failing.
