Hi! Chip Waggoner here.
I’m the Fox4 anchor that keeps you in the know when it comes to the latest traffic hot spots on the roads and my goal is simple: Keep you ahead of the game in your race to work! On any given day, our search will lead us to stalled cars, construction zones, accidents and other obstacles that could hinder your daily drive to and from work and school.
I grew up in the DFW area, am a Horned Frog grad married to a 4th generation Baylor Bear....so my blood flows purple with a hint of green and gold!
My hobbies include (in no particular order) baseball, golf, softball, grilling, traveling and playing my guitar.
If you want to find out more about detours and other traffic derailments, follow me on Twitter @chipwaggoner or my Facebook fan page. May you always have a "Good Day!"
