About Dustin Kopp
I joined News Channel 18 in May 2011 in the weather department as Chief Meteorologist.
In January 2013, I assumed the roll of News Director.
I started my career in 2003 in high school. I attended Farmington High School. While there, I was a student in Black Knight Television (BKTV), doing anything from camera work, to editing, producing and anchoring the weather.
I attended Mineral Area College, University of Missouri – Columbia, Mississippi State University and Webster University. While attending college, I continued to help out with BKTV. In 2009, I interned at KOMU-TV, Columbia, Missouri’s NBC affiliate.
I enjoy spending time with my wife, Danica and our daughters , Declynn and Danleigh. I can’t forget about our dog, Daisy. We rescued her in 2011. We also have a cat named Dolly.
I am committed to giving you the most accurate information, whether it’s from my latest weather forecast, or a news story that could touch your heart.
Contact me if you have any questions or a news idea.
