Frank joined Houston's Local 2 team in 1995. He has received Best Weathercaster awards from the Associated Press seven times, the Houston Press Club four times, the Houston Press newspaper four times and the Dallas Press Club three times. The Houston Chronicle named Frank the "Ultimate Weatherman."
A Washington & Lee University graduate, Frank received his Broadcast Meteorology Certification from Mississippi State University. He holds the seals of approval from both the American Meteorological Society and the National Weather Association.
Frank owns a home in Galveston and will always be appreciated by Galvestonians for his extensive and honest coverage of Hurricane Ike's destruction in September of 2008. Frank walked the streets of downtown Galveston on the air, giving displaced Islanders their first real picture of what it was really like on the Island. He flew over homes on the west end, taking personal calls from homeowners and delivering firsthand the good - and sometimes devastating news of the state of their homes. Islander By Choice appreciates Frank's dedication to Galveston.
To meet Frank Billingsley, judges, and Bathing Beauties, join us at the Meet & Greet at the Historic Hotel Galvez & Spa on Friday, May 14 from 5pm to 7pm. More information at
