He’s known as South Carolina’s Weatherman because over the years, Jim’s forecast and warnings helped save lives. From Hurricane Hugo in 1989 to the Flood of 2015, Jim was the one person everyone in the Midlands looked to and trusted.
He’s an often-requested keynote speaker at events, and his ground-breaking Climate Matters segments got him an invitation to the White House. His Gandy’s Garden segments showed viewers how they can have fresher food and save money at the same time.
Jim has a degree in Meteorology from Florida State. He started his career in Memphis and worked in Oklahoma City and Wichita before moving to Columbia over 30 years ago. Jim is a Fellow of the American Meteorology Society. Jim retired in May of 2019 but is still a big part of the WLTX family. He can also be found cheering at USC soccer games or working on his mountain home.
