KGBT hires Vela as weekend weather anchor

Freddy Vela is starting a new job as weekend weather anchor/MMJ at KGBT’s CBS 4. His first day is Thursday, January 28.

In addition to his weather anchoring duties on weekends, he’ll be reporting 3 times a week as an MMJ for the 5 and 6 pm weekday newscasts.

Freddy most recently spent 2 years as weather anchor for Entravision-owned KFXV Fox 2 News in McAllen, pulling double duty at nights and also working the morning shift on “Good Day Valley,” until the company cancelled its morning newscasts nationwide.

After graduating from the University of North Texas Denton, Freddy joined Entravision, starting his career in the promotions department. There, he learned how to edit video and had a chance to practice some reporting, paving the way for a job on “Good Day Valley.”
