He is so humble and selfless.. even in his moment of receiving praise he effortlessly praises others... A true and genuine spirit

[@hailmaryrecordings8255]

He’s a WGN institution. He’s been THE weather-guy as long as I can remember. Good Luck, Tom. Thank you!

I am smarter for watching Tom Skilling. I still am able to read forecast maps better than most.

[@noelc.2007]

Humble, smart, kind Gentleman. ❤❤❤❤

Best wishes to Tom freaking Skilling!

[@jeannecraig8552]

Tom, you are , and always will be the best forecaster in the business, and a man among men!! What will we do without you?!

[@waleyefish9026]

Tom was talking about Gov. Jim Edgar's Fellow Ship Program in Champaign which started in 2012. It's a program that Stresses Problem Solving instead of Political Retoric. And Gov. Pritzker is a member.

Happy Retirement I wish you well!!!

[@cede-hf7vi]

Definitely more humble than his brother. Thanks for the good times Tom.

[@stevenmorales3515]

I’m pretty sure WGN want Paul to be promoted to a night meteorologist weatherman. He’ll be a next. And he’ll become a best and expert weather.
