WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — WPTV viewers waking up early Thursday may have noticed a new face in the morning.

The WPTV morning news team welcomed WPTV First Alert Weather meteorologist Jennifer Correa.

She'll be joining Hollani Davis, Ashley Glass and Mike Trim each weekday from 4:30 a.m. to 7 a.m. on "Today on 5."

Correa comes to WPTV after several years working in her hometown of Miami.

"I'm happy to say that I am, now, officially a resident of Palm Beach County," Correa said.

Earlier in the week, Correa confided to WPTV First Alert Weather chief meteorologist Steve Weagle that she is, in fact, a Buffalo Bills fan. Weagle, of course, is a Miami Dolphins fan.

"I will say that I'm officially a part of the 'Bills Mafia,' and I'm proud of it," she said.

Forgivable, for now, but come Sunday — when the Bills host the Dolphins in the playoffs — Correa is sure to get an earful from her colleagues.
