KTLA weathercaster Mark Kriski hospitalized for 'mild stroke'... after entertainment reporter Sam Rubin's shock death from heart attack


KTLA weathercaster Mark Kriski suffered a 'mild stroke' earlier this week, the station reported on air on Wednesday.

KTLA reporter Jennifer Gould — who is Kriski's wife — told TMZ that the popular weatherman had the stroke early on Monday morning while at their home in Los Angeles. After doing other work as a weathercaster on television in Canada, he made his break into the US market by accepting an offer to be the KTLA Morning Show weatherman for its launch in 1991. Gould said that her husband Kriski was still able to communicate, and his jokey demeanor and high spirits suggest a smooth recovery ahead; they are pictured together in 2012 in LA
