NBC 4 Washington Meteorologist Somara Theodore Joining ABC News
Somara Theodore has joined the ABC News team as our newest meteorologist based in New York City. Somara is an award-winning meteorologist hailing from WRC-TV in Washington D.C., where she served on Storm Team 4 for six years, reporting forecasts on the weekend-edition newscasts, NBCWashington.com, WTOP Radio as well as NBC’s Weekend Today.
Additionally, Somara provided wall-to-wall coverage of Hurricane Ian for MSNBC. While in D.C., Somara also served as an adjunct professor at the University of Maryland, teaching broadcast meteorology.
Prior to WRC-TV, Somara was the morning meteorologist at WEWS-TV in Cleveland, where she won an Emmy Award for her comprehensive morning weather report of a deadly plane crash in Akron, Ohio. Somara’s career kicked off as a weekend meteorologist for WJCL-TV in Savannah, Georgia.
In this new role at ABC News, Somara will serve as our third New York-based meteorologist, working alongside our trailblazing team that includes chief meteorologist and managing editor of ABC News’ climate unit Ginger Zee and senior meteorologist Rob Marciano.
Hopefully she'll learn how to work with a green screen and not present the weather to the monitors on the side.
