Kaylie did your Grandparents have ties to Lamar County, TX?
I had a teacher in 1960s and her name was Capps. She from Lamar County at that time. Any relation to you family
Kylie,
I knew a Jimmy Capps in the South Hills area of ft worth. He should be 68/69 by now could he be your uncle or dad. We went to elementary at south hills elementary. I think he played drums back then.
Love watching Kylie Capps’ weather reports. Great job young lady.
I think Kylie is great. She is professional, personable, and knowledgeable about the weather. Hopefully, she will be around for a long time to come.
I am surprised Kylie is still with Fox…she is NOT what I would call a weather person. Her deliverance is terrible, and she thinks everything is funny. Maybe Fox should wake up. I never thought I would be going to another channel. We are not interested in her fashion statements or her hair. We all want accurate weather, not her snide comments!
Your comments are ridiculous. Kylie is one of the best weather people I have ever seen or heard on TV.
Kylie, what do you use to make your hair so shiny and pretty?
I watch Fox 4 nearly every morning to start my day. I was wondering if Kylie Capps is the daughter or related to Mike Capps, a one time local anchor and reporter here in DFW area?
The Fox 4 morning meteorologist is, too.
