Jeff Harrison
Jeff Harrison is the Program Director and Afternoon Drive Air Personality for Majic 102.1. Jeff began his career in San Bernardino, California as an announcer for the local college station KVCR. After two years, Jeff parlayed this experience into an announcer job in Flint, Michigan at WAMM-FM. During his tenure there, Jeff won Billboard Magazine's Air Personality of the Year Award. After leaving Flint, Michigan, Jeff worked as an announcer at WHAT Radio in Philadelphia, and later WJPC Radio in Chicago. Five years later, Jeff left Chicago to work mornings at KDIA in San Francisco, where he also served as Program Director. Jeff worked in San Francisco for nine years, where under his direction as Program Director, KDIA achieved its highest Arbitron ratings ever. While also in California, Jeff spent two years at KBLX/KRE Radio in Berkley. There he also enjoyed ratings success as Program Director and Afternoon Air Personality. Jeff later joined KMJQ-FM/Majic 102.1 in Houston, Texas, where he stayed for six successful years. As the Afternoon Drive Personality, Jeff consistently earned top ratings within the station's Adult 25-54 demographic target, ranking #1 and #2 in the Arbitron ratings during that six-year period. Jeff then left Houston to join the staff of "The Wave", KTWV, 93.3-FM in San Francisco as the Music Director and Morning Air Personality - where he stayed for nearly two years. Missing Houston, Jeff rejoined the staff at KMJQ-FM/Majic 102.1 in 2003. Jeff feels the success of any radio station is due, in large part, to being in touch with the "pulse" of the community, creating an on-air format that is stimulating, and has enormous mass appeal. He attributes his success to being in tune with the needs and desires of the station’s listeners.

The National Hurricane Center says Tropical Depression #3 formed in the Bahamas on Thursday morning. Its current forecast path has it heading in the direction of the oil spill.
Officials at the NHC say while the storm’s path is not clear, it is expected to enter the central or eastern Gulf of Mexico in the next few days.
As of 10 a.m. Thursday, officials in Miami said the depression had maximum sustained winds near 35 mph and could become a tropical storm later in the day. Should it become a tropical storm, its name would be Bonnie.
The center will provide another update on the storm at 1 p.m. Central Time.
A tropical storm warning has been issued for the central and northwestern Bahamas, for Florida’s east coast south of Golden Beach and also along Florida’s west coast northward to Bonita Beach. A tropical storm watch is in effect for Florida’s east coast north of Golden Beach.
The storm is putting extra pressure on BP and the U.S. government to decide whether to evacuate dozens of ships at the site of a ruptured oil well. An evacuation would halt repair work and force BP to reopen the cap that has contained the oil leak for several days.
“This is necessarily going to be a judgment call,” said retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, who was waiting to see how the storm developed before deciding whether to order any of the ships to leave.
BP spokesman Scott Dean said Thursday morning that no decisions had been made yet.
