The Birmingham television market has an incredibly talented group of meteorologist. They all do a great job of keeping us in the loop on what is going on with the weather. When there is severe weather they do an exceptional job giving us information to help us stay safe. I strongly believe this group has saved lives over the years when we have experienced severe weather. Luckily we don't have bad weather all the time in Birmingham so there is some down time when all the local meteorologists have to tell us it's going to be sunny, hot and humid. One of the meteorologists in Birmingham that makes the most of this down time is Harmony Mendoza. She's good with the weather but also adds an element of fun. One of my favorite spots she does is a weekly segment with the Birmingham Zoo. This past Sunday's segment was particularly entertaining. Click the link below for a fun filled three minutes.

Harmony has a very dry sense of humor and this often comes across when she is live on TV. She will often make off the wall comments about what you should be doing with your day and or about the previous news story. Her Twitter feed is also entertaining @HarmonyAla13. She will often tweet pictures of her shoes or some other inside joke that is going on during the newscast. Sometimes she loses track of time during her segment and I can envision a frantic producer yelling into the microphone to refocus her. She mostly does weather on the weekend in the morning. Sometimes she fills in during the 4:30am weekday news and you get that extra dose of Harmony that makes your day a little happier. Don't get me wrong I can see why someone might not share my enthusiasm but I like her style.
