MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Trevor Birchett is a meteorologist for ABC24 and CW30. He joined the team in May of 2021.
Trevor is no stranger to the Mid-South. He was born and raised in Southaven, and his interest in weather developed in 2008 when a tornado tore through DeSoto and Shelby Counties. That tornado damaged much of the Hickory Hill section of Memphis, including Hickory Ridge Mall.
He is a graduate of Mississippi State University, where he studied meteorology and broadcasting. While in school, Trevor worked as the weekend meteorologist at WCBI-TV in Columbus, Mississippi for two years. There, he had the opportunity to cover all types of weather including tornadoes, hurricanes, flooding, and ice storms.
While Trevor enjoys studying the science behind meteorology, he’s most passionate about communicating weather in a way that everyone can understand. Whether it be a sunny day or a day with a risk for severe thunderstorms, he’ll be keeping a close eye on the weather with you in mind.
In his spare time, Trevor loves to walk around the city, take photos, and travel, even if it’s just a day trip to Nashville or Birmingham. He also frequently attends social and community events, so if you see him around, be sure to say hello!
Trevor is excited to be back home to serve the communities of Memphis and the Mid-South!
