CTV News Kitchener is saying goodbye to weather specialist Will Aiello as he prepares to embark on a new journey with CTV Morning Live.
Will said he is moving back to his hometown to be closer to family and take on his 'dream job.' However, the decision was not an easy one to make.
'Leaving the CTV Kitchener team will be very difficult but their support with the new opportunity has made it feel much better,' he shared. 'Thank you to everyone for allowing me to be myself and spread so much energy and positivity into this wonderful community.'
To celebrate our time with Will, we are sharing some of our favourite moments with 'Weather Will.'
He hosted Oktoberfest activities, got his hands dirty in weekly Get Growing segments, and made our tastebuds tingle with Get Grilling.
Here are some memories we will cherish, long after Will has changed his alarms to his new 1 a.m. wakeup call.
