Career
After studying journalism at Macleay College in Sydney, he joined radio station Nova 96.9 as a traffic reporter in 2003 before moving on to cover general news and report on major events for the DMG Radio Australia network.[2]
In late 2019, it was announced that Davies would be replacing Steve Jacobs as the weather presenter on the network's breakfast program Today, commencing in 2020 as part of a widely-publicised overhaul.[6][7][8]
In October 2022, Davies reported seeing masked men who he believed were looting houses as he and a Today crew arrived to set up a live cross in a flood affected area of Maribyrnong, prompting him to contact police.[9][10]Victoria Police later confirmed they were investigating a man who allegedly stole several personal items from an unoccupied home while two accomplices waited in a blue Ford Territory.[10]
After a holiday in Austria in March 2020, Davies was on one of the first international flights to land in Australia after the federal government ordered all passengers arriving in Australia to self-isolate for 14 days at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.[14]
