Sharon Meyer

Weather Director and Anchor

Sharon grew up outside of Boston, Mass., 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. Sharon is married and she enjoys family time, travel, baseball, boating, skiing and hiking with her dog, Daisy.
