    Default Weather channel to start reporting... weather?

    TOO LITTLE TOO LATE IMHO...

    The Weather Channel is canceling Sam Champion's morning newscast, replacing reality shows with more weather coverage, cutting TV production costs and laying off some staffers in a sweeping adjustment to changes in the cable business.
    The channel shared a detailed plan with staffers on Wednesday morning. About 50 of the channel's 1,400 employees will be leaving.

    The weather channel went down hill when NBC took over.

    Maybe the history channel will take notes.

    The weather channel went to hell when they stopped showing the local forcast on a loop while playing the Peanuts theme song. It was on every morning when I was growing up. Loved it.

    Finding weather on that channel is like trying to find music on MTV. It is worthless.

    You can get all the weather updates and forecasts you need on your phone. Irrelevant channel anymore.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    Get the weather app and you will realize very quickly that the experts can't even predict the weather an hour from now. You'll go from 20% chance of rain for the day to an 80% chance then back to 30% within a 30 minute timeframe.

    But global warming is a fact ya'll. The science is flawless.

    WU's new weather app "Storm" is pretty badass

    That is correct. Happened earlier this year I believe. I prefer WU and I upload my personal weather station there.
