MATT SCOTT Emcee

METEOROLOGIST / CO-HOST FOX 61 MORNING NEWS

MATT SCOTT is the weekday morning meteorologist, part of the "Fox61 Morning News." He joined FOX61 in 2013 and brings more than 20 years of broadcasting experience to the FOX61 weather team. Originally from New York City, Scott attended the University of Maryland and Mississippi State University. He has spent the last 15 years working as a meteorologist in Connecticut. In addition, he has worked in West Virginia, Mississippi, Charlotte and Boston. His work has been nominated for Emmy Awards many times. When he’s not on air, he’s online. Scott has won awards from the New Haven Advocate, the Hartford Advocate and New Haven Living magazine for his social media influence. But his two biggest accomplishments are at home – his two children. When he has a little spare time and is not sleeping, Scott loves to cook, play golf, play poker and read. He would probably be a better chef, a stronger golfer, a smarter poker player and a more accomplished reader if he could pry himself away from Facebook once in a while.
