Kelly Bates is a class act, and the kind of person you would want for your best friend . A class act, and channel 10 is the big loser in this scituation. You have lost another viewer…

Channel 10 was always my favorite. Not anymore. Shame shame on you. Taking away everyone's beloved weather woman. How horrible!

Hello WPRI!!! What a shame! I always felt Turn to 10 was like my family. I just ordered Hulu live, since my little antenna couldn't get Channel 12. Channel 10 is awful. Kelly, we stand by you!!! If Frank Coletta was able to stay as long as he wanted, so should ANYONE. Channel 10 is obviously a man's world!

It is disheartening that Ch.10 has let Kelly Bates go. She is one of the best. I am done with Channel 10 unless Kelly returns.

Bring back Kelly Bates, or lose more viewers. Your decision is cold, and poorly done. And please don't try to play it off that it was Kelly's decision.

This is so wrong. Kelly brought so much to each appearance, her laugh, her relatability, wit, her knowledge and yes her maturity. She was a reliable comfort to many of us. And a person who displays that level of emotional distress is not leaving voluntarily so save the PR corporate we are not buying it. I no longer feel a loyalty to 10 so I am off to 12.

Kelly Bates is hands down the most talented meteorologist out there. She delivers the weather with warmth and humor and is so relatable! WJAR obviously doesn’t value talent or women. Big mistake WJAR! We will not watch your station anymore!

She is by far the best on ALL stations. This is outrageous! Rhode Island Monthly's best.

A down right wrong decision! Made many and many more to come temperatures rise when she was given the cold shoulder. Switching to 12, because of this, so sad because everyone else suffers when ratings go down on use to be the BEST in RI
