Meteorologists don't use a script, and most create their own graphics and certainly put together their own forecasts. Most of us went to school to become scientists - at least I did - and studied thermodynamics, physics, and tons of calculus to take this young science to the next level. Our accuracy is amazing and will only continue to improve.

No matter the natural disaster I've covered, whether it's a wildfire or flood, I always come back with a much greater perspective.

Professional highlight of 2011 was definitely getting the job at ABC.

I'm self-deprecating - always.

Ten days before I started my job at ABC News, I checked myself into a mental health hospital.

I always had becoming a meteorologist as my goal from the second I decided, while I was in school, just to study meteorology.

To witness history and science being made in front of your eyes is the rush.

There have been struggles and challenges that I have faced that few know about but I hope will help others going through the same thing.

I didn't study broadcasting in school, but I did a lot of internships, and I dedicated myself so much so that I made my email password 'Todayshow10' because I wanted to be on the 'Today Show' by 2010.

I find home renovations almost traumatic. But people can create something great.

If someone hurts me on social media, I want to tell them that they've hurt me. I believe you should say what you're feeling. We should all do that, but what I've also realized is that even a negative comment is from a person who is trying to reach out. When I reply, maybe I'm reminding them that there's a deeper meaning to what they're doing.

I hope weather coverage on a national level will help folks learn to respect the power of severe weather, and weather in general, so more lives are spared.

We don't all have perfect lives, even if they are seemingly so.

Parents just want their baby to be happy and healthy, and we're giving every ounce of ourselves to do that.

The moments before I fall asleep are when my list of things to do attacks my brain.

I actually think the last time I stood with a race medal around my neck was after an eighth grade cross-country meet. I was gawky and 65 pounds soaking wet, and running 10 miles a day was no big deal.

The eye of the hurricane forms as air rotates up and out of the hurricane and some of the air that's being spun out of the top of the storm sinks back into the center. This keeps the eye of the storm relatively calm and clear.

I've been lucky to find a husband who doesn't judge my past.

Ideal day is a hot and humid morning, tornadoes develop, no one gets hurt, and we get to collect data and chase the tornadoes.

My stepfather and his large family - The Crafts - are from Chicago, so Chicago has always been home for me.

I wanted to write a story about my struggles with depression and mental health. It's an issue that needs to be talked about more.
