For this photo shoot , he headed into our studio bearing his very first barometer, ‘because the pressure is on!’”
Fishel joins WRAL-TV in sweeping the top honor for his category every year since the Maggy Award began in 2006. First in the Best Meteorologist category, and as of 2014 in the newly combined Best TV Personality.
