I love how all of the sudden, a Tropical Depression developing is now "breaking news"
Branding things "breaking news" or "developing" in the news business makes it sound more urgent! I don't always agree with it, because I think some media outlets (cough-NancyGrace-cough) abuse the branding.
But, I could see how TWC could call the TD forming "breaking news." It's "new" and it's weather-related. Now, it wouldn't be breaking news on the local level...
