Let's make this birthday one to remember.

49 years old (Born on March 01, 1976)

Happy Birthday, Dave Malkoff! May your special day be filled with sunshine and clear skies—because we all know you've had enough hurricanes to last a lifetime. Your fearless reporting from the eye of storms has earned you Emmy Awards, nominations galore, and probably an honorary doctorate in umbrella management.

From braving fierce winds to delivering compelling documentaries that keep us glued to our screens (and safely indoors), your dedication is unmatched. Here's hoping this year brings fewer Category 5s and more category-fun adventures. Keep chasing those stories—but maybe take today off from chasing storms? Cheers to another whirlwind year ahead!
