50!? wow! Can't believe it. Such a youthful spirit and we will miss him.

[@scottyh8494]

Steve is an awesome guy...

[@benjamincollins8559]

Traveling to be on the news is challenging on it's own, the best of luck to the weatherman. I don't know what it's like for Stevie and he's traveling, I just know that it is a lot of planning.

Is he gonna go on proper tv show?12 years as a weatherman.He may as well be on neighbours.

[@Davey74Boy]

wow! I didn't know Stevie was a married man with kids. MMMMMMMM

[@joobs130]

ahhhh listen here stevie jacobs! Arent you still working 9-5 monday to friday? I call BS!

[@destinitra]

They start at 5am on this show. So as he said he never got to wake up & spend the morning with his wife or get his kids ready for day care. With a 9-5 job he can now do all those things. The kids went to day care so the wife must have her own job 9-5. The kids would now be at school so it’s still the same. Both he & the wife can get their kids ready for school as schools generally start at 8-8:30 & spend their mornings waking up together & all having breakfast together as a family. The Lesson: Even though he’s still working a full time job it doesn’t mean its BS because with a 5 day 9-5 job, compared to a 6 day 5am- whatever job, he can still do everything he stated he wanted to in the mornings with his family & he also gets an extra day with them.

Darf ich mich vorstellen but he just does it in such a iconic and fun way

[@onarby2786]

I know it’s a choice of lifestyle you wanna live... bit of glamour being on telly.. why not But come on there are much more difficult professions out there.... and they don’t spend time with their families either ..... why glamourise some weather man over thousands of other people that do the same thing day in day out

Hey person over there who's complaining about not seeing your family. Shut up there are people who don't see there family longer than you so I'm going to belittle your problems. That's how you sound
