Here are just a few stories WFTV Meteorologist, Brian Shields, has covered!

Sent in by mom Tiffany: “My two sons, Austin and Travis, who both work at the Publix in Lake Nona and are working very long hard hours to try to keep up with the demands. They are putting their own health at risk each day. They ARE my heros!!!!”

From Kelly, who nominated them: “My heroes – my dad is a long haul trucker working tirelessly to deliver supplies. And my son is with Security Forces in the USAF. Both have essential jobs and neither one complains. I love these guys!”

From husband Don: “My wife Frances is putting in countless hours as a nurse with Advent Health. She’s filling on all shifts as needed. She’ll do whatever it takes.”
