A meteorologist in Oklahoma is making forecasting more accessible and inspiring the next generation of meteorologists along the way.

The freelance weekend meteorologist at KXII, a CBS and FOX affiliate in Sherman, Texas, said she has always had a soft spot in her heart for the hard-of-hearing and deaf community. And with social media often lacking closed captions or accurate captions, she felt the need to start talking about the weather in ASL and incorporate it into her meteorology.

Smith said she is happy to see the impact and hopeful this new trend starts to spread, helping other communities that may not necessarily get the news and weather normally. Smith gets her passion for sign language after an introduction to it at a young age when her mom went to college for special education.
