Patrick Bigbie Career
Bigbie works as a chief meteorologist at WDAM. His love for weather started from the moment he was born. He would watch The Weather Channel rather than cartoons at a very young age. Understanding weather patterns seemed to be second nature to him.
Throughout his upbringing, Bigbie took every available chance to pursue his dream of becoming a meteorologist. At the age of 13, he took the title of the youngest Weather Watcher for WSFA in Montgomery, AL, establishing valuable connections and learning from professionals in the field. Even before graduating high school, he advanced as a SkyWarn Spotter. During this time, he demonstrated his commitment to understanding and forecasting weather phenomena ranging from blizzards to tornadoes to hurricanes.
Bigbie’s reputation soared after his fast and resourceful actions during the Pine Belt tornado of January 2017. When the storm made the station’s audio useless, he used a piece of paper and a Sharpie to communicate critical information to viewers, holding up a handwritten warning, “No Sound Tornado on the Ground in Petal,” in front of the camera. His dedication and excellence have earned him numerous accolades, including multiple Best of the Pine Belt awards for “Best Local TV Personality” and even an Emmy Award nomination.
