@KOMUnews
BIG NEWS!! I’m happy to announce that I’ve accepted a position to join the KOMU 8 First Alert Weather Team full-time!
Thank you to everyone who helped me get here❤️ I’m very excited to build my career in mid-Missouri :)
Macy’s Parade: ✅
Thanksgiving Meal: ✅
Marching Mizzou is now on their way to several airports throughout New England to make the return trip to Missouri. More pictures and videos to come, but for now, here is the pin that we all received!
A sleepy Wednesday update! We’re going to be on the Today Show before continuing to practice, going to the Rockettes, and falling asleep early tonight!
@KOMUnews
Today was my last day as “Weathercaster Kesley Kobielusz” as tomorrow I finally graduate from Mizzou and will become “Meteorologist Kesley Kobielusz”
It’s been a long journey, but I’d like to thank everyone who’s helped me get to this point. I’ll see you next week mid-MO
If you think yesterday “underperformed” or the forecast “failed” you are sick. Reevaluate your priorities. Root for the people, not the storm. My heart is with those who lost everything
The 96th annual
@Macys
parade is done! What a once in a lifetime opportunity for myself and
@MarchingMizzou
! We did 2.5 miles in about 33 mins!!🏃♀️ Here are a few videos and pics before the parade and my step count during!
A year ago today I made my live debut! I went back and watched my first broadcast and all I can say is thank you to everyone who has stuck with me. I may not be perfect, but I am getting better everyday. Thank you mid-Mo :)
I’m taking a break from the weather this week and trying my hand in reporting! Throughout the next week, I’ll be bringing you behind the scenes with
@MarchingMizzou
with the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade!!
Sitting behind the scenes (literally) on the morning show for one last time and it feels vaguely similar to when your friends hangout without you.
Thanks for waking up with me the last few months. I’ll see you soon; although, I’ll be better rested.
For the first time ever, the entire weather team was in the same place at the same time! Honestly, that’s more impressive than The Avengers! Weather team assemble🌩️🌨️☀️
A busy day in NYC! Started my morning off with the breakfast of champions, went to top of the rock, and walked 19,000 steps around the city! Marching Mizzou practices begin tomorrow
@komunews
Ran into a few familiar faces in Texas! This team is working so incredibly hard and it was so cool to get to see some of the behind the scenes that I don’t normally get to see🐯
@KOMUnews
I’ve said time and time again that
@KOMUEmily
is the hardest working person I know. The perfect anecdote for that statement…. Last night (on her 2nd to last night) she went out and shot a story between the 6PM & 9PM newscasts.
Help us say goodbye tonight at 6 & 10 on KOMU 8 😭
3rd school visit ✅
@KOMUJosephWX
and I went to Orearville this morning to give a presentation about what it means to be a broadcast meteorologist! We also hopefully inspired a new generation of meteorologists 😊
If you are traveling, you are in the last few hours to make a plan for safe travel! Snowfall and blowing snow will make for hazardous travel conditions late Wednesday into Friday night.

The meteorologist who comes up with silly ideas vs the anchor who makes them happen 😂
Are you participating in
#Barbenheimmer
weekend? Which movie are you most excited for??
As a journalist, I can’t have an opinion on most topics, but hello?? Why did we feel the need to make this??
@BethFinelloWx
actually just suggested to use it for the impending cicada invasion, so I’m more behind the idea now 🤔🔥
Whether you're headed to Mizzou's last home game today or just doing some Black Friday shopping, expect a mild and mainly sunny day!

So so SO excited to have Beth join our team!! Sad to leave the morning crew but so incredibly happy to have another amazing woman in stem representing mid-mo
🥳THRILLED TO FINALLY SAY Missouri I’m coming back!! I’ll be joining
@KOMUnews
in Columbia as their newest morning meteorologist! I’ll start in early July! Alex and I can’t wait to explore a different part of Missouri!
Just two months after performing at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City, Marching Mizzou announced that they've been invited to perform in the 2024 St. Patrick's Day Parade in Dublin, Ireland.
It’s National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day! I adopted Doppler from Central Missouri Humane Society, where he was known as ‘Wesley’, in 2020. It’s been the best decision I’ve ever made🐾❤️
I’m back from my little vacation in the Black Hills (seriously the prettiest place and everyone should go)! I’m a little sleepy this morning as I try to readjust my sleep schedule but I’m ready to get back to doing what I love
In case you need another reminder to not leave kids or pets in a hot car. This was at 10am and the air temp was 85 degrees and my car had been in the sun for 20 mins
Me on my lunch break: "Wow, it's so nice out"
Me when I grabbed something from my car a few minutes ago: "Wow, it's cold"
Thanks a lot, cold front.

Say hello to my new best friend, Mr. Cold Front! This cold front will drastically cool down our temperatures as we head into the first day of fall 🍁

Seconds after this photo was taken my watch sent me a notification saying “It seems you’re awake. Would you like to start your day?” Like I hadn’t been up and at work for hours… morning news problems 😂
Happy Monday! I know most don't look forward to Mondays, but look forward to warmer temps again today. We reach the lower 70s today before a drastic cool down begins tomorrow.
