I trust Kelly Bates. She reports professionally without the drama and hype. She's straight forward and reliable. Channel 10 should be ashamed for ousting Kelly in favor of a younger model. With so many departures lately, Channel 10 is no longer worth watching!

I am so disappointed she is the best meteorologist and so sincere and personable. We do not need young and pretty save that for Beverly Hills. We need good caring and knowledgeable people!!!

She is the best and I have been relying on her forecast for the past 20 years. I hate to say that I will be leaving channel 10 in the morning on weekends.

She is committed to her profession. This is likely about her appearance. Different standards for men.

Kelly is the best weather person in Providence, and has been for quite some time. When Kelly moved from the mornings, I moved to another station. When Kelly moved from the weekends, I moved to another broadcast. Time to move from WJAR.

Huge mistake by channel 10! What is management thinking, a great reputation and highly competent is not enough to sign her to a new contract, I'd get rid of the management that made this move possible. Gonna watch channel 12 from this point on.

Kelly Bates is by far the best meteorologist on any local news station in this region!! I can only hope that another local station scoops her up before she leaves the area!! You people really do suck!

As a channel 10 viewer all my life, like my parents before me,one I help but notice a huge staff turnover at channel 10 of recent. I am beyond disappointed to see that Kelly Bates has been let go. Here in New England we value professionalism but we also value a friendly face,a warm smile and that feeling of trusted familiarity that comes with news and weather staff like Frank Coletta,J ohn Ghiorse and Kelly Bates. I for one ,will be switching channels as you seem to value younger,model looking staff beyond what your trusted viewers want
