(KANSAS CITY) --- Gary Lezak, Chief Meteorologist at KSHB-TV in Kansas City, will go One on One with Victor Hogstrom Friday, Jan. 26th at 8:30 p.m. on KCPT.

"I am very pleased to begin our second year of One on One with Gary Lezak. I know viewers who have turned to him for weather forecasts will be interested in learning more about Gary Lezak the person," Hogstrom said.

A few years after becoming a meteorologist, Lezak moved to Kansas City and was quickly accepted by local viewers.
