Gannon Medwick was born in Wilmington, DE and grew up in nearby Kennett Square, PA. He joined the Weather World production team in November 2001 and was a part of the on-air team from February to November 2003. In December 2003 Gannon graduated from Penn State with a degree in meteorology, a degree-emphasis in weather forecasting and communications, and a minor in business-leadership strategy.

His experience with Weather World has propelled Gannon to a television meteorologist position in Lake Charles, LA. A seafood and tropical weather enthusiast, Gannon certainly felt at home in Acadiana. But, Gannon admits, as a Philadelphia-area native, he'll eventually want to return to a region that features all the forecasting fun of the four seasons (especially snow!).

In October 2004 Gannon joined Storm Team 9 in Greenville, NC as the morning and noon meteorologist. He lives in Pitt County with his wife Jennifer. The tricky weather systems that move through eastern North Carolina and the East Coast are what caught Gannon’s interest in meteorology early on. In spare time, Gannon enjoys experimenting with web design, jogging, playing racquetball and tennis, cooking, and-what else?-"recreational" weather-watching!
