Greg Fishel (born February 19, 1957) is a former meteorologist for WRAL-TV in Raleigh, North Carolina. He received his B.S. in Meteorology from Pennsylvania State University in 1979.
Fishel began his broadcast meteorology career in 1979 with WMDT in Salisbury, Maryland.[1] He joined WRAL in 1981, and became the station's chief meteorologist in 1989.[2] He resigned from the WRAL News Team in February 2019.[3] In late 2019, Fishel joined Priogen Energy, an Amsterdam-based energy company, as an atmospheric scientist.[4]
Through most of his career, Fishel held a view on climate change in opposition to the climate consensus. However, he began researching the matter in 2005, and by 2015 he participated in a climate documentary. In his last five years with WRAL, Fishel would make strong anti-denialist statements on climate change.[5] [6]
