Chris McGehee

I was born in eastern Tennessee but we moved around a lot so I can say I grew up in Tennessee and Virginia and California. I work as a hydrologist for the National Weather Service, at the Southeast River Forecast Center in Peachtree City, Georgia.

Before, I was service hydrologist at the Weather Forecast Office in Fairbanks, Alaska for five years, and before that I interned at the New Orleans/Baton Rouge WFO in Slidell, Louisiana—I was there when Hurricane Andrew hit the area after crossing Florida in 1992, but obviously Katrina did a great deal more damage in 2005.

Today I live in Coweta County, Georgia with my husband Kevin, our four cats Taz, Suzie Q, Mickie and Sophie, and our dog Lucy.

I’m a “ham,” call sign KLØUD, and belong to Women of the Moose and Daughters of the American Revolution.

UPDATE:
Tuesday April 27, 2010	Today, Chris was awarded NOAA's 2009 Bronze Medal (PDF), for developing and implementing the National Weather Service High Water Mark Sign program -- which has now become a permanent function at the national level. ak4mc
