Karl Bohnak

Representative · District 109
Michigan

A love of snow drew Bohnak north to the Upper Peninsula nearly 40 years ago where he became chief meteorologist at WLUC-TV6 in Marquette. He’s been there ever since. Weather has been Bohnak’s passion since his youth, to this day he is captivated by learning about and informing people of interesting, extreme weather. But Bohnak is more than just a meteorologist. He is also an author and historian. His award-winning book, “So Cold a Sky” was released in 2006. His next effort, “Michigan’s Upper Peninsula Almanac” was co-written with Ron Jolly. His latest book, “Sunburns to Snowstorms, Upper Michigan Weather in Pictures and Stories” is a collaboration with photo historian Jack Deo.
