As an Emmy award-winning certified Broadcast Meteorologist for CBS News Detroit, Kylee became the first female and second-ever meteorologist to earn the Certified Digital Meteorologist Seal of Approval from the American Meteorological Society. Kylee has been a Certified Broadcast Meteorologist by the AMS since 2019.
Kylee has worked as a meteorologist in Lansing, Flint/Saginaw, Denver, South Carolina, Detroit and filled in at CBS Chicago. She also has been a National Meteorologist at WeatherNation and had a live weather report during a flood event on the Weather Channel. She delivers her forecasts on CBS Detroit’s noon and 4 p.m. newscasts each weekday.
Kylee helped start CBS News Detroit’s weather department as the station launched in January 2023. While working in South Carolina, Kylee won a regional Emmy Award for tornado aftermath coverage and was Emmy nominated for deadly flooding aftermath. She also teaches meteorology courses at Eastern Michigan University.
With Kylee’s platform, she goes to schools to talk about the weather and her background to get younger children — especially girls — interested in science fields, and she always talks about her experience at CMU.
While working toward her bachelor’s degree in meteorology, Kylee was part of the News Central 34 team. She learned what it took to be a broadcast meteorologist, attended conferences, and even had the opportunity to work in the meteorology field while still attending CMU. She goes to many CMU alumni events and has helped mentor students who are interested in meteorology.
