Jennifer Valdez is the meteorologist for CBS Atlanta's Better Mornings Atlanta, which airs weekdays from 5-7a.m.

Jennifer joined CBS Atlanta from WYFF in Greenville, SC, where she was the meteorologist for the weekend evening news. While there, she visited Atlanta frequently to visit family and friends - she knew Atlanta was the place she wanted to be!

Jennifer studied telecommunications at the University of Florida, and while she enjoyed news, her true passion was weather. After receiving her Bachelor’s Degree, she furthered her studies at Mississippi State University, where she received her Masters Degree in Geosciences (Broadcast Meteorology). In 2005, she worked as the on-camera meteorology intern at The Weather Channel.

In Jennifer’s spare time, you can find her watching college football, running, spending time outdoors, enjoying everything beautiful Atlanta has to offer, and at various dog parks with her Italian Greyhound, Sadie Mae.
