On this page, you'll find Rachel's reels. The first video is her anchoring and reporting. Her second reel is her weather reel. 

Rachel is working toward a BS in Meteorology from Mississippi State University to accompany her BA in Journalism from Texas Christian University. She graduated Magna Cum Laude from TCU with Honors. She will graduate from MSU in 2024. 

​After the Christmas Day explosion in Nashville, there was a widespread Internet outage, preventing Rachel's station from recording her wall-to-wall, unscripted anchoring that day. However, her news director said to the rest of the team, "Rachel Tiede anchored four continuous hours without a prompter or script and was calm, in control and exuded command.  She has a big future behind the anchor desk.”

Several of the live shots from the March 2020 tornado were a couple minutes long due to the nature of the wall-to-wall coverage. They've been shortened for the sake of the reel. For the complete live shot, please visit the "Works" page.
