Jacob Wycoff

Jacob Wycoff is a meteorologist at WBZ-TV. Wycoff will contribute to weekend mornings on WBZ-TV.

Growing up in Northeast Ohio, Wycoff got hooked on weather at a very early age. In the spring of 1993, there was the "Storm of the Century" Blizzard, burying the region under nearly two feet of snow. A month later, a small tornado touched down near his hometown and in 1996, the movie "Twister" was released, solidifying Wycoff's desire to one day become a meteorologist.

Wycoff joined WBZ-TV from Western Mass News in Springfield, where he was a meteorologist for 5 years. Prior to that, Wycoff worked at EarthNetworks, the parent company for WeatherBug, where he covered multiple tropical systems and snow storms including hurricanes Earl, Irene and Isaac.

Wycoff holds a bachelor's degree in Operational and Theoretical Meteorology from Western Connecticut State University.

Jacob is a member of the National Weather Association and the American Meteorological Society.

He has won multiple awards during his time in TV, including two Emmys and the Massachusetts Broadcasters Association Personality of the Year in 2018 and Best Meteorologist award in 2022.

Jacob lives in Worcester County with his wife and two children.
