WELCOME BACK MY FRIENDS.....
My name is Chris Cimino and I'm a TV meteorologist(WPIX NYC) and host, as well as blogger and podcaster(Bleav In Middle Age Warriors) for the last 30+ years.
I started this blog about 4 years ago after having my contract not renewed by WNBC in NYC, of who I worked for 24 years.
Nearly 21 of those years were as the early morning meteorologist for Today In New York, the newscast that preceded the Today Show.
Over the years I had the privilege of filling in for Al Roker on the Today Show, as well as a two year run as the regular Saturday morning meteorologist for the Weekend Today Show.
As of July 2019 I found myself unemployed for the first time since I was 19 years old. Suffice to say that was a little more than a couple of years ago.
I’ve been through a lot in the last 4 years of my life. Most of it has been good.
The path wasn't always easy and I often feel the burn of still trying to rise from the ashes of my past life.
While not 100% on either, I've learned two big lessons in this process. To forgive myself and to trust myself more. Short sentences.....long processes.
I hope you will rejoin me again on this journey through what I will call upper mid-life. If I can help or inspire one person along the way then this is all worth it.
Thanks for getting this far..... if you did. Read More
