I feel like I've lost a good friend, and it's infuriating! Kelly Bates is a talented forecaster with the credentials to back it up, and I can only attribute this to conservative Sinclair Broadcasting aspiring to be another Fox News. It won't be long before all the females working for the station are forced into skin-tight dresses and too much makeup. We don't tune in for titillating eye-candy. We tune in for the news. Shame on them!! Time to look for a new station.

will no longer watch turn to 10. Kelly was the main reason I tuned in. No need to watch now that she is gone.

Please work with Kelly , in this household we all love her. I’m sure we will go elsewhere if she leaves.
Don’t let the woman who says things like “the air you can wear “ about high humidity get away.

I'm a longtime WJAR Sunrise viewer ....since Frank and Art were on.. this is outrageous. Kelly is an excellent meteorologist and broadcaster. I will switch to anothet station until she's brought back.

What about letting RJ go? Kelly Bates is a fan favorite. Younger doesn't make someone better. As a matter of fact the morning person as my son said "looks good but sucks as a meteorologist".

I cannot see any reason why a beloved new meteorologist was let go after so long. I will no longer watch the station with her.
