If anyone in Colorado is enjoying the recent bizarre weather — the tornados, the rain, the hail — it’s probably Owen Daniels.
Nicknamed The Weatherman because of his degree in atmospheric and oceanic sciences from the University of Wisconsin, Daniels’ love for all things related to the weather is well known at this point. He’ll occasionally drop weather terminology in team press conferences — “I believe it’s elevation, not altitude” — and has admitted he wishes he could chase tornados (probably wouldn’t fly with John Elway).
