A Final Broadcast
Channel 9’s Today show weather presenter Tim Davies delivered his final forecast on Friday, September 18, 2026, marking the conclusion of a seven-year stint that saw him become a familiar face across Australia. Since joining the program in 2019, Davies has logged over 900 flights, reporting from locations spanning every Australian state and territory, as well as international destinations including France, Greece, Thailand, and New Zealand, according to Nine.com.au.
The network orchestrated a celebratory farewell for his final broadcast, which included a choir performance, a ride on a party bus through Sydney, and a special presentation from Qantas, which gifted him personalized Business Class pajamas in recognition of his extensive travel history. Colleagues, including hosts Ally Langdon, Karl Stefanovic, and Sarah Abo, expressed their gratitude for his contributions to the show.
Reflecting on a National Journey
During his emotional final segment, Davies reflected on the challenges and rewards of live television. “Live TV is not an easy beast to be involved with, but thank you for everything you have done,” he told his co-hosts. He noted that the role allowed him to connect deeply with audiences nationwide, stating, “One of the hardest things in life is to be your true, authentic self. Thank you to our audience for accepting me and allowing me to just be me.”
Steven Burling, Nine’s Director of Morning Television, highlighted the impact of Davies’ reporting, noting that he provided a platform for small towns and local causes that might otherwise have gone unnoticed. “During his time, he’s given a platform to small towns and communities, showcasing their people and causes to a national audience, and that will leave a lasting impact,” Burling stated, as reported by Yahoo Lifestyle.
Next Steps
Davies, who has been with Channel 9 for 12 years in total, indicated that his decision to leave was motivated by a desire for stability. “I’ve been everywhere, I’ve done everything, and I’ve done it with the best people… it’s time to do life a bit more now,” he explained. While Nine has yet to announce a permanent replacement for the weather presenter role, Davies’ departure follows a period of transition for the show’s broader lineup, with the network currently managing shifts in its presenting team.
