Carol, from Morar, Scotland, has served on a number of shows since her TV debut on BBC Breakfast 21 years ago.
Away from meteorology, she has covered Wimbledon, reported for The One Show and even made a cameo in Hollyoaks.
Six years ago, Carol also starred in the 13th season of Strictly Come Dancing, where she was partnered up with Pasha Kovalev.
The star admitted that she would “remember Strictly for as long as I live” and would “never regret doing it”.
