SAN ANTONIO – KSAT Meteorologist Sarah Spivey is celebrating her new status as a Certified Broadcast Meteorologist by the American Meteorological Society.
“I feel very honored to now hold a Certified Broadcast Meteorologist seal from the American Meteorological Society,” Spivey said.
The Certified Broadcast Meteorologist designation is viewed as a mark of professional distinction and recognition for meteorologists.

I’d like to thank the many people who have helped me along my career, my family and friends, the American Meteorological Society and my wonderful coworkers at KSAT.
