Sometimes I think people do things in this town just so we can write about them.
We have learned that News 9 Severe Weather Babe Cassie Heiter is dating jet-setting, trust fund inheriting, drunk driving Dippin’ Dots CEO Scott Fischer. We know this thanks to Instagram posts like this…
Jesus Christ. What’s the douchiest part of this photo? Is it the ridiculous pose, the pumpkin spice latte or bragging about the “spontaneous trip” weekend getaway that your parents’ wealth afforded you? I’m going to say none of the three and go with the shoes. Or the fact that he uses “CEO” in his Instagram username. It’s a tough call. You’d have an easier time picking your favorite Dippin’ Dots flavor.
Obviously, Cassie is giddy and a bit awe-struck by this fairy tale situation. In just a few of years, she’s gone from a chipmunky weather producer via Quad Cities to a red-hot, multi-millionaire dating weather babe. According to her Instagram, the two first met at some event back in August:
Well, apparently Scott did know how cool having your parents buy Dippin’ Dots and name you CEO is to Cassie, because a couple of months later, the couple was taking a jet down to Dallas for OU / Texas:
In all fairness, we all look possessed when we see dollar signs flashing in our eyes.
Does Instagram have an edit feature? It looks like Cassie had an auto-correct typo and accidentally wrote “people” instead of “plastic.”
There’s a lot of reasons the common-folk are resentful and jealous of the 1%. One of the biggest is that people with inherited wealth and money usually don’t have to suffer consequences or accept responsibility for their mistakes. For example, when most people get arrested for a DUI, they usually have to deplete their savings or go into debt to pay for legal costs and attorney fees. The last thing they can afford to do is take the private jet to Texas for a fun weekend of sports, drinks and shopping with their weather babe girlfriend. I guess that’s why all of us want to be rich, huh?
Here are a few more photos:
That’s a funny caption. Just like with Pete Davidson, it’s nice that Cassie has a light-hearted, self-deprecating view of this fairy tale. It will make it easier to deal with things when (or if) the clock strikes midnight.
It’s funny how access to a private jet and an unlimited supply of ice cream from the future can make someone handsome.
All snark aside, we’d like to congratulate Cassie on this score. If only her nihilistic trainer would let her eat Dippin’ Dots, this would be the ultimate dream come true. I guess we should also congratulate Scott. He’s proof that even following a bitter divorce and embarrassing DUI, you can still have fun and enjoy the good life if you have the right parents. Plus, he now even has someone to blow his breathalyzer. Must be nice!

Excuse my Weather Babe ignorance but is her last name pronounced CHEAT-ER ?
Suddenly, she’s not hot anymore….
+10,000
Plus she seems to like that one pair of yellow shoes a lot!
That’s what I was thinking.
#GoldDigger would be the most appropriate for her posts, I would think.
Dripping with narcissism…
Sarcasm dots????
Patrick’s penis envy continues….
I’m with you. Not seeing the hate here, Patrick. Yeah, he was born into money and flaunts it. It would be all rosy and rainbows if he used it to open an orphanage and animal hospital but fairy tales are fiction.
She seems nice, hope it’s true love (see above).
Now if he goes all political, opens a string of payday loan places, and she starts hanging with hipster Boo Boo; all bets are off and FLAME-ON!
How about some articles on BEST/WORST campaign mailers and handouts. Reader submissions from around the state. Awards for most outright lies, dog whistles, ad hominem attacks, unconstitutional proposals (state and US), and general douchebaggery.
Guy looks like a total rat bastard.
– Cheers
Perfect bag for Cassie. Now she has something to brag about when she can’t figure out why Lacey, Emily and Shelby are more popular with viewers than her…hmmmm, maybe because they are degreed meteorologists and actually understand atmospheric science. 🤷♀️
The absolute worst look is someone who flaunts their wealth and privilege, especially with douche bag poses and hashtags. #blessed? Nope. 🤮

Shelby, is that you?
Is it just me, or does he have a Danny Bonaduce look about him?
Bonaduce is more attractive :/
He looks like that guy from Walking Dead who was Rick’s partner before it all went to shit and later on played a superhero or whatnot.
Shane was Rick’s partner. Actor was Jon Bernthal. Yes, I’m a Walking Dead geek.
Nah….it’s more of a Joey Buttafuoco look!
He’ll dump her. And then will she feel stupid!!!
What a bunch of nosy assholes. Leave that girl alone, she seems happy. Unlike the rest of you haters.
You put your life on Instagram. You post obnoxious pictures bragging about private jets? Yeah… people are gonna call you on it.
come on jed and david its time you had the conversation with her!!
Cassie has undertaken something of a frump-to-babe metamorphosis since joining News9 (Ms. Swope was no doubt a positive influence). Why not lay off the snark, for a change, and let her enjoy some of life’s good fortunes? It’s fun, no doubt, but snark doesn’t become you.
Seems today’s younger, hotter TV “meteorologists” view televison weather reporting as the new dating app.
Let’s see: Cassie Heiter is young, pretty, smart, vibrant and — worst of all, apparently — happy. No wonder the ugly-souled trolls have crawled out from under their rocks to vent their outrage. More power to any two people who can find a little romance and happiness with each other — ever and for however long.
Think you forgot cynical.
I have no idea who either one of them are, but what’s up with those shoes that the guy is wearing in the first picture?
I am setting the early over/under line on murder-suicides at .5 between those 3 couples.
When he falls, he’ll fall hard. Hope he doesn’t take her down with him.
