LACRESCENT, Minn. – Television weatherman Dan Breeden, who knows the Coulee Region like the back of his hand, has retired after 38 years. Breeden, age 65, pioneered local weathercasts at WXOW, which previously had relied on remote reports from a sister station 140 miles away in Madison. Breeden has kept a busy schedule talking about weather at community events. Through his “Weather Academy,” he brought meteorology to hundreds of children over the years.
