Veteran meteorologist Bill Martin is retiring from Oakland Fox owned station KTVU after 33 years.
Martin started working at KTVU in 1992 as the weekend meteorologist.
“Over the years, he has become a trusted voice during the Bay Area’s most critical weather events. From his early coverage of the Oakland Hills fires to the San Bruno gas explosion, the Oroville Dam evacuations, and the devastating Camp Fire in Paradise—where he tragically lost the house he grew up in,” KTVU vp and news director Simone Aponte wrote in an email to staff. “Bill has guided viewers through some of Northern California’s most challenging moments with compassion and professionalism.”
