Weatherman Jonathan Myers gone from WUSA9; third on-air departure in recent months

WUSA9 has parted ways with another on-air talent, reports FTVLive.

Almost two years to the day after making his on air debut at WUSA 9, see above, meteorologist Jonathan Myers, right in photo, is no longer with the station. Sources told FTVLive that he was told his contract isn’t being renewed because the station is looking to take the morning show in a different direction. Previously, Myers was chief meteorologist at FOX45 in Baltimore.

The departure of Myers follows the recent departure of longtime D.C.-area sportscaster Chick Hernandez. In addition, in September, meteorologist Makayla Lucero left the station and is now marketing director of the Theresa Sondra Jacobs Foundation. I

By way of background, FTVLive states it is “THE TV News Insider website that has been around since 2000.
