Synopsis
Meet Dave Spritz, Chicago’s most popular weatherman and minor celebrity. Professionally he’s on top of the world but his personal life is in disarray. Failing father of two and frustrated son of a famous writer, Spritz is poised on a knife edge between stability and disaster. Faced with the chance of hitting the big time in New York he embarks on a soul-searching mission to reunite his family, but the more he tries to take control, the more he finds that life, like the weather, is completely unpredictable.
