Eric Oren

Weather reporter, NewsChannel 21 at Sunrise

I grew up in Central Oregon, but I’ve spent over a decade as a professional entertainer and media professional across the country, most recently in Chicago and New York City.

For the last few years, I’ve been hosting a morning radio show in town, and there’s nothing I love more than engaging with an audience.

Myself and my creative work have been seen on NBC, TruTV, the Billboard Charts, The Onion and more!

I have a true passion for people, fitness and the great outdoors, so reporting the weather feels like a very natural fit.

My incredible wife and I have a daughter and two loving, rambunctious dogs.

Although our life is certainly busy, it is full of joy. I couldn’t be happier to be a part of the News Channel 21 team, here in my hometown, helping to tell the story of our special community!

I sat down with our retiring chief meteorologist, Bob Shaw, to talk about myself a bit - my new role and background. Check it out here!
