Because you know, why believe in a higher power when something as devastating as a tornado spares you and your son? To be fair, she respects others thanking the Lord.


Hey there, I'm Shmitty! You probably hear me if you've ever called the studio, given gas prices or looked for school closings! But I'm much more then the person that keeps Gary Allen and Steve Kelly in line.
I'm originally from Lansing and I still pride myself on the 'cap city'. I went to Grand Valley State University for broadcasting. Go Lakers! I graduated in 2009 and after an... interesting summer job hunting, I got the privilege to join the mighty WOOD and wake up with two incredibly knowledgable, witty and always hilarious guys. I love working with this morning team and giving you the News, Weather, Traffic and Sports you need! And now I can give you a glimpse into my world, so check back often!

Might not want to watch this one at work. Remember, crying is completely acceptable. I found this pretty uplifting after waking up to such devastating news in Oklahoma...hopefully you'll find this helpful too!
Important to remember safety in severe weather, take it from these drivers!
