It's a girl for Channel 13 weather forecaster and hubby

The news is out: Channel 13 weather forecaster Casey Curry has given birth to a baby girl. Curry's colleague on the station's morning news, Sharron Melton, announced the birth on her Facebook page.

"Now I can officially announce, our own Morning Meteorologist Casey Curry is a Mommy! She had her baby girl yesterday (Thursday) & they are both doing great! So happy for the whole Family!!!"

No official word yet from the new mom, but Curry previously announced on her blog, "Weathergirl Adventures," that she and husband Carl Hahn were expecting a baby girl. Last month, friends and colleagues celebrated with the couple at a Texas-themed fajita cookout that the hosts dubbed a "baby sprinkle" because it was a bit different that a traditional baby shower.

It's certainly been a busy week for Curry, who was on the air for extended periods of time during Houston's frigid spell on Tuesday and Wednesday.
