Unemployment Numbers and Other Stats for Meteorology

That's a really good point. A friend of mine just has his BS and is doing really well for himself it seems at a station down in Hattiesburg. He even made a bit of a name for himself when the station lost sound during a severe weather outbreak, and he started writing messages on paper for the area's affected by a tornado and holding them up to the camera. Great thinking under pressure. I think he's going to keep rising.

Exceptions to the rule.

TV is not the place to be shooting for in this day and age... The number of TV met jobs is dropping as more and more are going to a centralized model (where they have one location do "look live" forecasts for multiple stations across the country.) And the era of a 6pm/11pm met having a job in Philly that pays 7 figures has ended too. Do it if you love it - don't do it for the money
