I am thrilled to be in my hometown as FOX 13 Seattle's Chief Meteorologist. You can watch me weekday mornings on Good Day Seattle.
My news career started in Oregon. I worked at KOHD (ABC) in Bend and for KPTV-FOX 12 Oregon in Portland as a meteorologist and reporter. It is great to be back home in Seattle doing what I love. I enjoy helping out the community and have emceed and auctioneered hundreds of non-profit events, raising millions of dollars for local organizations in the Pacific Northwest.
Outside of my work in news, I love making people laugh. I’m a longtime comedian and improviser, performing with Seattle’s legendary Unexpected Productions at the Market Theater and Portland’s Brody Theater. I even got the chance to tour Europe with my comedy and have shared the stage with great comedians like Bob Odenkirk and Ryan Stiles. I'm also a huge Seattle sports fan, so you may see me and my family in town at a game.
I hold a Master’s Degree in strategic communications and a Bachelor's Degree in broadcast news from Washington State University (Go Cougs!). I also have a Bachelor’s Degree in meteorology from Mississippi State University (Go Bulldogs!).
I'm the chef in our house and make a mean lasagna. I firmly believe that raisins should not be in baked goods and that pineapple absolutely does belong on pizza.
You can find me on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter at @BMacTV. I'm also on TikTok at @bmac.tv. Email me with story ideas or to talk weather at brian.macmillan@fox.com.
