Judge received the CBM seal (Certified Broadcast Meteorologist from the AMS) in 2006, and was among the first few in New England to receive it.
While in college, Judge worked in Boston (Massachusetts) radio as a DJ, and also worked as a helicopter traffic reporter. Judge spent eight years hosting a radio morning show on New Hampshire's Seacoast 102 WZEA-FM (where he won the New Hampshire Association of Broadcasters' "Air Personality of the Year" award in 1993) and later on Arrow 105.3 FM. After that, Judge returned to college to study weather forecasting and meteorology.

Judge released a book in early November 2010, called, "Extreme New England Weather." The book profiles New England's storms and past historical accounts. The book also features contributions from New England television meteorologists, and a chapter written by the staff of the Mount Washington Observatory.
In 2009, Judge wrote a children's book with Kathe Cussen about weather, titled "Weather Facts and Fun".
Since 2018 he has been a full-time real estate agent, but still forecasts the weather part-time.
