We were shocked when KXAN's Jim Spencer grew a goatee this summer because we're used to his delivering the weather exactly the same, every day – in fact we depend on him to do it the same way all the time. But the goatee proved that still waters run deep, and we realized that this mild-mannered man has an edgier side. He's not just a weather forecaster; he's a weather artist. This is Spencer's umpteenth well-deserved "Best of Austin" award – an honor he regularly trades with this year's close second, Mark Murray of KVUE.
