Sharon Meyer leads the team of Meteorologists at WCAX-TV and provides weather forecasts on the Channel 3 News at 6:00PM.

Sharon grew up outside of Boston MA, but when she came to Vermont to attend college, she knew she never wanted to leave. Where else can you find a job you love, and "live in a postcard"?

She became the lead forecaster, and director of the weather department, when Stuart Hall retired in 1990.

She has a BS from the University of Vermont, and has been a member of the American Meteorological Society since 1988.

Sharon is best known for her versatility. She frequently includes garden tips, foliage tours, nature notes, and finds time for her "pet" project... finding homes for animals from the local Humane Societies.

She is busy away from the station as well. She enjoys family time, travel, baseball, boating, hiking and skiing.

She is married, and is the glowing owner of two dogs.

Inside The Forecast

Today's Forecast

Today's Forecast Image
  • 44°
  • 39°

A Flood Watch continues for Vermont and the eastern Adirondacks through Sunday afternoon. An additional 1-3" of rainfall is expected by Sunday morning; this could create poor drainage flooding, as well as flooding along streams and some local rivers. Temps will be stuck in the 40s across the valleys and 30s in the mountains. Northerly breezes at 10-20 mph will make it feel even colder.

Some parts of the area will also see wintry weather! Snow levels will continue to lower to around 2000' by this evening. Periods of mountain snow will persist through the night and into Sunday morning. Accumulations are expected to be light around 2000', with more than 6" is likely across the summits.

Sunshine will finally return on Memorial Day, with highs in the 60s. Keep your cameras handy, as the some mountains could be white-capped, making for great pictures.

Temperatures will continue to warm up through the rest of the week. A warm front could bring us some scattered showers or a rumble of thunder by Wednesday.

Be safe!
