Welcome to Bill Martin West Coast Weather — where California weather meets California life.
I’m Bill Martin, a lifelong California meteorologist and UC Berkeley grad with post-graduate work in Atmospheric Science at San Francisco State. I spent over 40 years forecasting as Chief Meteorologist at KTVU Channel 2 in the Bay Area, along with time at CBS.
My family goes six generations deep in California, and this channel reflects everything I love about this place. Yes, you’ll get daily, detailed forecasts built on the latest models, satellite imagery, and live cameras… but you’ll also get the California that shaped me:
• Surfing, skiing, biking, hiking, climbing, fishing
• Music, art, culture, and California history
• Geography, geology, oceans, mountains, storms, fog, and wildfire science
• Nature Snacks and live looks from every corner of the state
This channel is forecast meets California — science, storytelling, and lifestyle blended together every single day.
