Ashley also covered weather in Idaho and Oregon. Her forecasting experience spans major winter storms, severe flooding and wildfire coverage to name a few.
When she’s not tracking weather patterns, Ashley enjoys living an active lifestyle. You can find her exploring the outdoors with her dog Stella, booking a workout class, attending a live music event or discovering the best local eats in town.
