Kevin Niewood was born in Manhasset, NY and has been looking up at the sky ever since. His passion for meteorology only grew when he moved to Parkland, Florida in 1993. It wasn’t until 2005, while watching morning meteorologist Lonnie Quinn on WTVJ NBC Miami, that Kevin discovered his passion for broadcast meteorology. In 2007, he began to pursue that passion at The Florida State University. He is currently a senior who plans to begin working as broadcast meteorologist after graduating in the spring of 2012.
