ILLINOIS – On Wednesday, State Representative Jennifer Sanalitro (R-Hanover Park) recognized ABC7 Chicago’s Chief Meteorologist Cheryl Scott for Women’s History Month. Cheryl Scott has been with the station since 2014 and has frequently filled in as a meteorologist on National Broadcasts for Good Morning America (GMA).
While highlighting her career accomplishments, Sanalitro said, “Cheryl Scott’s influence goes far beyond the forecast. She has also used her platform to support charitable causes and give back to the Chicagoland region in meaningful ways.”
In addition to being ABC7’s Chief Meteorologist, she also serves on the board of the American Red Cross in Chicago and was honored in 2024 for her 10 years of dedication to the organization.
“Scott has been a prominent ambassador for the annual Great Chicago Blood Drive, an event she has supported for over a decade. She frequently broadcasts live while donating blood herself, which has encouraged many viewers to participate in the collection of thousands of units for the Red Cross,” Sanalitro concluded.
Sanalitro concluded by thanking Cheryl Scott for her career accomplishments and wishing her and all women across Illinois a Happy Women’s History Month.
