Bill Henley on WCAU in 2005.
Bill Henley is a meteorologist for
WCAU in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. There
he presents the weather during the weekday edition of NBC 10 News
Today. He is also the co-anchor of the morning talk show
10!. Henley joined WCAU in February 1994. Unlike his
colleagues, Henley does not have a American Meteorological
television seal or Certified Broadcast Meteorologist certificate,
despite a promo on the station claiming all their meterologists
have the Certified Broadcast Meteorologist certificate.
Around
the 6:20 am weather report, Bill Henley does his exclusive
EarthWatch Travel Forecast. It consists of him giving the
temperature and condition of several popular cities around the
county, and one last town that has a strange name, which changes
daily. Henley starts of the travel forecast by saying
"Getting
ready to skip town? Check out these forecasts for major
cities around the country." Before the last town is mentioned,
he says
"And our final major city this morning, the HUGE
metropolis of...", while a
drum roll is playing in the background and the
town is unveiled. One of the daily cities mentioned is
Miami, which Henley refers
to as Miami Beach, and pronounces it with a unique
emphasis on "Beach". Terry Ruggles
is known to imitate Henley's pronunciation of Miami Beach at times.
It should be noted that only Bill Henley does this travel forecast,
and it is only shown weekdays at around 6:20 am. When Henley is
absent, the travel forecast is not given, unless the substitute is
Dave Warren.
On December 29th, 2006, Henley plans to attend
dinner at Alba with Mr. and Mrs. Pepin.
