KGO-TV's Lisa Argen; Beauty, Brains, Class and Eloquence; Oh, Happy Mother's Day Too

 Lisa Argen is a breath of fresh air on Weekends --KGO-TV's venerable meteorologist with a gift of beauty, brains, class and eloquence. Hard to believe Argen has been predicting the weather at KGO for 10 years now; even more she came from KRON (thank God) back in 2006.

This is what I love about Lisa: she doesn't have to scream and yell and do dance moves on the air. She's all the package by herself. She doesn't need amateur cheap tricks to make hay; just by standing there and providing us the information is good enough here; Lisa Argen, thanks for your low-pressure system anytime of the day.

Oh, and Happy Mother's Day to my mom, your mom, and Lisa too--she's one great mother!

  1. Lisa is a wonderful human being. She's a beautiful women who doesn't act like a beautiful woman, meaning she is as nice as nice can be.

  2. She always reminded me of Mr. Burns from the Simpson's. Also, appears enhanced up top.

  4. I second that! I worked with Lisa years ago and she will always be one of my favorite people in the business.

  5. She's solid all around. She's a hidden gem in the wee hours of the weekend morning. Why they have her stuck in no-mans land is a definite head scratcher. Guess she's not goofy enough to slum around with the social media brats on the weekdays. She certainly has game for weeknights. She'd fit in well with Dan Ashley and Ama Daetz. Professional, no-nonsense, just the facts. Definitely nothing of interest for Fox2. Just as well, too...

  6. Glad she's worked at two network-owned stations. KRON from 1995-2000 (weekday afternoons, when it was NBC), and now ABC O&O, KGO-TV, from 2006 - present. She is a breath of fresh air!

    1. KRON was not a network owned station. An affiliate of NBC, but not owned.

  7. Lisa Argen is the platinum standard as far as I'm concerned a kind competent professional who is also a lovely woman...

  8. Some people commented here a few days ago that Catherine Heenan's been around for years and yet has always been passed over for top spots--has anyone wondered why Argen is still doing the graveyard shift after almost as long in the business??

    1. Is Argen 50+ as well?

    2. Not that it matters but Lisa Argen is in her early 50's. I'd say that both Lisa and Vicki from KRON are two of the best examples of older woman who put younger women to shame with their ageless good looks.

    3. Noelle Walker is another one.

  9. Agree. Lisa Argen has always been under appreciated.
    A professional who goes on with her work.

  10. You know Lisa Argen is from Buffalo and went to Notre Dame, right? Here again is a smart, pretty, hard working Rust Belt girl done well for herself.

    Buffalo is a tough town to be from as it is. Summers there are gorgeous but winter? Snow. I mean, SNOW. Come November, anything can happen there winterwise. I'm not kidding. You'll go to bed with bare roads and wake up with a foot or more of the white stuff.

  11. Take it from a Rochester native: Buffalo (or Rochester) are not tough places to be "from". It's pretty nice out here.
