Update:  According to Jackson, Miss. meteorologist Barbie Bassett, there are 12 women who are chief meteorologists at TV stations in America.  Apparently, it’s been an old boys club for a long time.  When Tammie Souza joins WTSP, Channel 10, in Octoner. there will be 13.

In a shameless attempt to run up the number of eyeballs checking out WaltTV here are some photos of them:

I’ll keep updating until I find all 12.
