Christine Hanson: Veteran Bay Area TV Weatherwoman Now In Sacramento and One-Time Playboy Centerfold (NSFW)

 Kristine Hanson elicits a lot of traction in my e-mail box.

Hanson is currently doing weather at Sacramento's Fox TV40.

But she spent the bulk of her career at KGO-TV and KTVU.


Hanson was also the Playboy Magazine Playmate of the Month in September of 1974. (NSFW--Nudity)


She won an Emmy Award and a first place award for American Women in Radio and Television.


During her career path in the Bay Area, Hanson was the subject of rumors about an affair she had with Bill Walsh. She's never acknowledged the romance but never denied it either. Luke Ford addresses that subject with Lowell Cohn.


Hanson still looks great at age 63. I'm surprised she didn't finish her career here in the Bay Area where she enjoyed widespread respect and affinity from both colleagues and friends in the industry. Her work was mostly first-rate and garnered her top marks from the Bay Area media crowd. She was a hard worker and most tenacious in delivering accurate weather forecasts. I wouldn't be shocked if Hanson were to show up at a Bay Area TV outlet sometime in the near future.

  1. She must be a fill-in because she's not the regular morning, evening or weekend meteorologist.

    1. Both Kristine and Christine work in Sac, one is more attractive than the other.

  3. Good Genes (Jeans) or Good Doctors?

  6. I have that issue.
    She autographed the centerfold for me back in the 1990's.

  7. When she was at KFTY, she did some non-weather related work as well. Talented, and versatile.

  8. She is very photogenic. I like the way she smiles for the camera.

  9. I met Kristine in the mid 70's when I worked with Harry Geise at KCRA Ch.3 in Sacto. I don't mind saying that she is a long time colleague and good friend. She has NOT had any medical handiwork but eats properly, has good genes and is a superb athlete. She runs,cycles, skis and works out daily. She works hard at staying in shape and taking care of herself.Her knowledge of meteorology is 2nd to none of anyone in the SF or Sacto, market as is the only person I know that knows the micro climates of both markets. She has a great personality, knowledgable and attractive; a true triple threat.

    1. Really?
      So why would she have a testimonial thanking a plastic surgeon?

  10. It was more than an 'affair,' but hand it to the coach, that's being a real Genius. And Heather Holmes is cool. She's also very pretty in person.

  12. She started at KCRA 3 Sacramento in the early 70s. She and Tom Duhain were the main weather reporters after Harry Geise. Many of the great Bay Area TV people came from Sacramento including Radnich who did sports on channel 40s NewsPlus anchored by Pete Wilson. Radnich did a Warner Wolf delivery at the time and Wilson used to razz him about it on the air.

    1. Serena Williams' ass is an ass to die for, the ass on Hanson is nice for a white woman who tend to have flat behinds like Heather Holmes

    2. 11:47, nice bigotted comment about white women.

      Serena Williams ass is that of a 'roid infused manimal. Not attractive. Unless you prefer muscle men over women.

      Delete
    3. Typical white guy comment demeaning of a real ass. Just because you can't handle it you try to ridicule it. Stick with flat booties if that's your thing. Let the real men handle the Bootylicious ones. Move aside...

    4. 1:28 is compensating big time here. Poor thing.

      Delete
    5. No, the ones compensating are the white women who get butt implants. Poor things!

      Delete
    6. Kristine's is nice; it doesn't measure up to the sisters Butt. And boy could Bertha, Betty, Bella, and Bathsheba do the boogie! No question.

    7. Kim K..now THAT'S an ASS!

  14. Serena Williams. That's a man, Baby!

  15. She is a "has-been" and brags about a lot of things regarding her career that are just not true. She is not a very nice person at all!
