I’m enjoying maternity leave right now with our second child. I’ll be back on TWN in the summer/fall of 2017 and I can’t wait to start talking weather again with you all. Meantime, I thought I’d take a little trip down memory lane — I just looked through all these old work pictures. From footie-fan days covering the 2010 World Cup, nationally for CBC, to reporting days all over the province of Ontario for CBC Windsor and briefly for CTV in Sudbury and some great print and commercial gigs too! Here are some snapshots!

Winter weather warrior
Well actually, it’s been a mild winter for much of Southern Ontario. However, it’s been a blast doing a bit of storm chasing and winter weather reporting on the road for the Weather Network when we have had some active weather. Normally you can find me in studio anchoring the weekend afternoon show from 12-2pm ET. Till then, bundle-up and stay-warm. And a huge thank you to Columbia Sportswear for outfitting all of our team at TWN to stay fashionable and prepared for elements!!
On TWN and CBC!
It’s been an honour to inform Canadians from coast-to-coast on their weather details on The Weather Network. Now, you can see me occasionally back with my former colleagues at the CBC! It’s an exciting partnership while working as a weather anchor with TWN and helping to bringing you the most update and accurate weather forecasts on CBC as well as always on The Weather Network!
Excited to announce!
Sorry to take such a hiatus from posting on here. Happy New Year to you all. Hope it was a wonderful holiday season. I wanted to fill you all in on some exciting news I announced on the airways over the holidays….another baby is on the way! Thanks for all the sweet viewer messages and comments. We are very excited to have 2 kids running around soon! And I’m having a blast sharing fun, quirky pregnancy antics with you all at The Weather Network!

Supporting the Alzheimer’s Society
It’s been over a year since I lost my grandmother to Alzheimer’s and I’m honoured to be sharing the story of her beautiful soul as I emcee an upcoming event for the Alzheimers Society of Toronto. Sharing experiences is one way we can all cope with this horrible disease. Click Here: Saphia Khambalia’s connection to Alzheimer’s to read more.
Some of my live, ad-lib, active weather coverage…

My bio is up and live on the Weather Network Site! And I’d love to connect with you to talk more about the weather. We love hear your weather story. Find me on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram!
As an update: I’m loving being a part of the wonderful team at TWN. You can catch me most weekends afternoons on the Weather Network. I’m soaking up a ton of weather info… and becoming a bit of a weather geek in the process! Hope you enjoy watching along! XO -S
Big thanks to Jason at The Tenth Letter Photography for the great picture!
Ch-ch-ch Changes…
Sorry for the delay in announcing this news here! It’s been a busy few weeks. I’ve decided after a lovely maternity leave that I won’t be heading back to my reporting position with the great team at Citytv. Time for some personal and professional changes, and I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve joined the on-air roster at The Weather Network! A huge thanks to all of my colleagues and viewers who made Citytv such an incredible place to work. I’m excited to take on new challenges as a National Anchor with TWN. Hope you will continue to follow along! Thanks for being a part of all the fun these past 4 years with City, Toronto!
Trip down memory lane…
These folks at Oh baby! Magazine were so much fun to work with. Here’s another piece I did with them a while back while working as a CityNews Reporter. Give this one on one a read if you have a chance, we talked about everything from pregnancy to potty training! It was important for me to express how we moms shouldn’t judge the choices each other make. Each baby and each parent is so different! What matters is getting through each day and giving ourselves a pat on the back! Thanks for reading! This snap is pre-baby! Oh baby, how rested I look!!!
Ice Ice Baby!
Throw back time! Can’t believe this chat with Oh baby! Magazine was almost a year ago. Seemed fitting to post it now because it’s just as icy and cold outside this winter as it was last year when we welcomed in our little guy during the big Ontario ice storm! Read about the adventure here including how the hospital we delivered in lost power, during my labour! For real!
