We love you Tom Skilling! ⚡⚡🌦️🌧️☁️☁️

I cried through the whole half hour! I’m going to miss him so much, so many memories, a true legend and inspiration. Love ya Tom❤

That was so awesome to see kind of emotional too

"Oh, Captain! My Captain"! 😢 Thank you for teaching us all about the Jet Stream & the Dew Point, & sharing your enthusiasm & love for all things meterological with all of us... Tom Freakin' Skilling! ❤ 🍀

Cried during the weather forecast

A wonderful, pleasant man, inside and out. Thank you Tom, loved listening and learning from you! Your missed, but Enjoy 🙌🥰🌤🌧❄️

Absolutely beautiful and fitting tribute to a giant. We should all be so positive and passionate about our careers and lives. Thank you Tom, and WGN.

Great segment with Tom! Kudos to all who had a hand in putting this together! WGN and Tim fans appreciate it. Congratulations and Happy Retirement, Tom!

I also shed a tear during his weather forecast last night. Micah could barely hold back her emotions. I don't blame her tbh.

Oh Tom, I have to say that I think the word 'iconic' has been overused as of late but you and your career certainly have been renowned. Your expertise has clearly come from the passion for your work and the Chicago area and dedication to your viewers who have trusted your forecasts and insights for decades. Most when retiring from a lengthy career receive thanks for their years of service. Well, your viewers thank you for that but also, if not more importantly, being the genuine and caring person we all wish we personally knew. Thank you for sharing your artfully executed meteorological skills and personality with us all over the past forty-five years in a way only 'Tom Freaking Skilling' could have! We all predict very pleasant years ahead for you!

Tom, Thank You for everything you did for our science and your dedication to Meteorology, one of the highlights in my life was spending a few minutes with you on the phone a few years ago you were so nice to me, Thank You, Wish you the best of luck in your retirement.

Watched you 50 years. I will miss you Tom.

Tom is ubiquitous in my life even though my Mom typically watched Tracy Butler on ABC 7, Tom Skilling was always around always present and always teaching us important lessons

Thanks to Pro. Ken Dewey for getting me an autograph picture of you. When he visited you many years ago. You also took him on a tour of WGN studio. I watch WGN back when you were on the cable network here in Lincoln Ne. I watched your forecast every day at noon up until the cable system here drop WGN. Enjoy your retirement. I am sure you will be missed in the Chicago area. Keep looking up..

Beautiful heartfelt piece.❤❤❤❤
