 :hmm: It's been nearly four days since WeatherNation said they were getting a new "lower third system". They said it would do neat effects. I guess that's being delayed but on the other hand, they're supposed to be coming out with a mobile app, which ill definitely try out, and if its ad free and features a nice radar, I think it will replace my TWC one!

Maybe they announced this when it was decided that a new LDL would be created, not at the point when it's ready to be used.

Just announced a couple hours ago, WN is now streaming online via their Facebook page (via Ustream).  You can check out the Ustream here: WeatherNation TV  and their Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/WeatherNation  I figured you'd want to see!

I'm really impressed with the WeatherNation setup so far, back when I first saw it, I was not so impressed. If they can land a spot on Dish Network and perhaps install regional units for cable headends, we could be seeing this as a direct competitor to TWC>

I can't wait to see their mobile app when they make one... It will sure beat the ad filled one TWC has!

You know... One thing I noticed, their likes amount has nearly tripled! I remember when they were at around 2000 likes, and now they're at 5000!

We just got Weathernation in the Fond Du Lac/Milwaukee area on Monday.  The local LDL, Radar and Local Forecast all worked on Monday. On Tues, the LDL and radar got stuck on Monday night’s conditions and forecast and I’m not seeing the local forecast anymore. It’s still not fixed this morning.   How do go about contacting them, or is someone on here that knows someone at weatrhernation?

Thanks!

WeatherNation TV has been launching over the air through affiliates nationwide.

Also, is anyone else having problems with the stream on their website frequently lagging? The site is cluttered with ads, thus lagging the stream. I used to watch the Filmon stream but that requires a paid subscription now.
