From Tom Field to Don Webster to MarkJWeather, from the first blizzard to the latest storm, from magnets and dials to doppler radar, News 5 has been there to keep you safe and informed.

CLEVELAND — Since News 5 first went on the air in December of 1947, we've kept community top of mind, bringing you the stories you need to know about. Over the decades, we’ve put community first with some of the best meteorological talent in Northeast Ohio television history here at News 5.

Our first meteorologist, Tom Field, made sure everyone in Northeast Ohio had the information they needed to stay safe.“The wind is so strong I can't even catch my breath,” said a News 5 meteorologist reporting from Public Square at the time. While we're no stranger to major snow events here in Northeast Ohio, our weather really runs the gamut.

A magnitude 4.96 earthquake hit Lake County in 1986, and its effects could be felt in 11 states, parts of Canada and Washington DC. This self-described"Kid from Canada" even turned down an offer to host “American Bandstand” because he loved it here in Cleveland so much.Longtime viewers might remember the days when our meteorologists used magnets and slides to share their forecasts.
