Background & Career

Born in the United States, Karissa Klos is bluestocking who holds double degree:; an honor arts degree from the College of DuPage and B.S. in meteorology (mathematics minor) from the Metropolitan State College of Denver (Summa Cum Laude). Inspiringly, Karissa is someone who pursued meteorology despite being more apt in mathematics and science.

She developed the meteorology hunger while still studying at the College of DuPage when she began roaming with the College Of DuPoint Storm Chasing program team, tracking and trailing storms for two summers. She originally wasn’t pressing about pursuing meteorology as her life career choice. However, the decision to switch to meteorology proved to be a no-brainer decision to Karissa after attending an Introduction of Meteorology Class to fulfill a requirement. She then moved to the Metropolitan State College of Denver.

Karissa Klos took the decision being mesmerized by the profession as a whole. She loved chasing thunderstorms and feeling the cool outflows. Her previous arts study at the College of Cupoint, where she learned a great deal about broadcast and communications, also helped her to take the decision of switching to meteorology.

Nevertheless, she always wanted to appear on television. Plus, being a television junkie also helped her to take the decision.Importantly, her notable work credentials include Clipper Express (2004-2006, Administrative Assistant),  CH Robinson Worldwide  (2007, Administrative Assistant, KMGH-TV ABC-7 ( Weather Center Intern, 2007- 2008),  Sioux city located KCAU-TV ABC-9 (2008-2012, Morning Meteorologist), WMBD/WYZZ (Morning/Noon meteorologist/ anchor, 2012-2014) and WeatherNationTV (2014- present).

Personal Life

Talking about her relationship status, Karissa Klos is a committed woman. Her husband is no other than American reporter/ anchor Michael Klos. They first met in a bar while both of them were tasting their first television stints in Sioux City. However, they didn’t fell for each other instantly as both of them were dating other people at the time.

Later, they began to see one another more often but not as a partner. If you may, they started to know each other first as  friends and both being in the television business also helped shape their friendship. Gradually, they begin to like each other while accompanying events with their large group of friends.

Finally, Michael generated enough courage to ask her on a date and the rest is history. Happily, they later enjoyed a church wedding in the year 2013. Amazingly, they later went to Rome for their honeymoon. On 18 December 2015, Meteorologist Karissa Klos & Husband welcomed a baby girl Klos. The news was revealed after the Weather Nation tweet to congratulate the family.

Indeed, she may not be a supermodel but she is definitely someone who enjoys her lucrative curvaceous figure and expressive personality.
