Hi Roberta
Glad to see you on Channel 2…”Missed you!” You might remember me as the one with the Light Bulbs that were hit by a lightning Bolt, and were forever marked by that eventful lightning blast. I still have those two bulbs in a metal box too. Now you might remember me, hopefully! I am still a long-time follower of your insightful weather forecasts. “You make me smile!”
Glad to see Roberta on KTVU. How come you are getting all the outdoor assignments, especially during the rain storms we have had recently. Be safe.

So happy to see you on KTVU. And also happy that you still have it after being away from TV news.
About a month ago, my husband and I were watching KTVU News and I briefly looked away. My husband said, “Babe, look! That’s Roberta”! I looked and was in awe! Yaaaay! Gotta love Roberta! Definitely camera-friendly and makes me wanna watch the full weather report. We’re so happy you’re with Channel 2 now! ☺️
Roberta, welcome back. We missed you and your professionalism. KTVU made a good choice in hiring you.
I was so happy to hear your voice on KCBS in the middle of the night last year when you called in after the earthquake!
That was very comforting to hear your voice again on the radio after you retired. Everyone at the station was so happy to hear from you. They said they really missed you! You are missed by many Bay Area people!
I remember Roberta and Juliett doing a mini ‘Amazing Race’ in the Bay Area against another KPIX news team…and winning. Hopefully, we see them doing the real thing.
