Lloyd Lindsay Young has a storied career in radio and television. He spent 10 years in radio starting in 1961, in mostly small markets like Butte, Montana, Tucson AZ, Bakersfield CA, and Salt Lake City Utah. He broke into television as a weatherperson at KIFI in Idaho Falls where he developed his signature "Helloooo Tucson"(or wherever) catchphrase. Next was WFIE in Evansville, Indiana and back to Idaho Falls. The general manager of KGO TV heard Lloyd while on vacation and hired him in San Francisco as the weekend weather guy before getting his big break at WOR TV in New York where he spent the next two decades as a very popular weatherman.
