Longwood Council Lunch & Learn

Join us for some great insight into our upcoming hurricane season with Meteorologist Eric Burris!

Only one meteorologist in Central Florida can say that they're born, raised and forecasting for their hometown. First Warning Meteorologist Eric Burris is thrilled to be forecasting weather for his friends, family and native Winter Park! Eric started his weather career at another Orlando TV station while still attending Lake Howell High School. His thirst for meteorology actually led to Seminole County Public Schools creating an internship program that would allow him to get credit. After Eric graduated high school, he helped cover hurricanes Charley, Frances, Jeanne and Wilma. This armed him with second-to-none experience and readied him for the transition from behind-the-camera to on-screen work. In 2006, Eric was hired at WESH 2's sister station, WPBF-TV in West Palm Beach, but he didn't stay gone for long. In 2007, Eric helped WESH cover the horrible Groundhog Day tornadoes, and he began filling in on weekends at WESH, eventually joining the WESH weather team full-time. Weather is the only thing he's ever wanted to do, and he's affectionately referred to around the newsroom as a "weather dork." When not on the air, Eric is working behind the scenes supporting Hearst Television's 26 other weather departments, helping create the best-looking, clear and easy-to-understand graphics in the country. Eric attended Seminole State University and graduated from Mississippi State University, but his fondest memories take him back to his time at the University of Central Florida (UCF), where he played the baritone for the UCF Marching Knights. Eric loves to connect through social media, loves holding live conversations on Facebook and is constantly tweeting weather data.
