Samantha Mohr is a meteorologist at WXIA 11 Alive in Atlanta, Georgia.[1][2] After being crowned Miss Georgia in 1985,[3] Mohr used her scholarship winnings to study meteorology in Houston where she interned at FOX TV station KRIV. From there she went on the KTVK where she was a morning meteorologist for Good Morning Arizona.[4] After a decade in the desert, San Francisco's CBS O&O KPIX hired her as Chief Meteorologist where she served for 6 years. From the Bay Area she returned to Georgia to The Weather Channel on Weekend View which she co-hosted with Dao Vu and Bill Keneely. CNN International was her next stop. During her two years at CNN Canter she also provided weather coverage for Weekend Express on HLN. Currently Mohr provides weekend weather for 11Alive in Atlanta, GA as part of the 11 Alive StormTracker team.[5]
