Speakers

KEVIN JANISON, EMCEE
Kevin Janison is a native of Los Angeles where he is an alumnus of Fairfax High School, then California State University, Northridge.
He has held the National Weather Association Seal of Approval since 1985. The Janison family moved to Las Vegas in 1994, where Kevin worked at KLAS until he proudly moved to News 3 in 2007. Prior to Southern Nevada, he worked in Reno; Madison, WI; Evansville, IN; Jackson, MS and New York City.
Kevin’s forecasts have dealt with all the curve balls thrown our way in Southern Nevada: 100 year floods to drought. From 8 inches of snow in Henderson to 117 degrees at the airport. From spring winds that have gusted over 90 mph in some neighborhoods to rare fog in the desert. There have been small tornadoes, microbursts, hail, and late-night lightning assaults. Who says Las Vegas’ weather is boring?
Kevin has been responsible for building the Neighborhood Weather Network, which placed weather stations and provided a curriculum in meteorology in over 100 schools throughout the region.
Each year, Kevin visits over 100 schools, giving presentations on weather, being an author, reading and speaking at graduations and DARE culminations. He also volunteers his time to numerous charities and community organizations since coming to Clark County.
Kevin was named National Broadcaster of the Year in 2006 by the National Weather Association. This honor was bestowed based on his on-air work, building and administrating the weather station network and service to the community. It is a very prestigious honor since every TV meteorologist/weathercaster in the country is eligible.
In June 2021, Kevin received his seventh Emmy award from the Southwest Region of the National Association of Television Arts and Sciences. It was his 16th nomination for his on-air work. He has won a “Best Weathercast” award from the Associated Press, “Best On-Air Personality” and seven “Best Weathercaster” awards from Las Vegas’ Electronic Media Awards, plus several mentions in the Review Journal’s “Best of Las Vegas” annual edition.
In December 2022, Kevin “rewired” from KSNV, but has recently shown up doing some fill-in forecasting on KTNV, Channel 13.
