Requests for Features in a "new" Weather Channel (hypothetically)

[twcfansince99]

Based on my observations and personal thoughts, it sounds like this would be an ideal time for a rival "Weather Channel" to be created, one that would cover the Weather Channel 24 hours a day (like TWC used to).  My question is what would everyone want to be included or featured on it, if a new one were to be created?  Although it may sound like a pipe dream, I have an inkling that it would be possible, and if so, I'd be interested in helping create or at least guide the process.  It is a situation I feel passionate about, creating a channel very close to what we saw a decade or about 12 years ago.  Maybe some of the old OCMs who got laid off would even be interested in joining.  It could be like the channel never as we knew it never even left.  Anyways, enough of my rambling.  What would be integral to include?

There was going to be a rival TWC to be created soon (*cough* called WeatherNation) but I haven't heard anything about it since.

But anyways, to answer your question, seeing some of the old OCMs back in the channel sounds impossible, to be honest. There's a slight possibility that the OCMs no longer on TWC may have left the meteorology field altogether. But if it could happen, I'd be happy again.

It certainly sounds daunting on the surface, but I think it could be done if some of the younger mets who were laid off are interested.  Dave Schwartz would be more than a pipe dream at this point, but maybe the likes of Sharon Resultan, Kristina Abernathy, and even a met like Paul Emmick would be more willing given their younger ages.

Even if they were offered their jobs back, they might not want to take it. You would probably feel awkward working in an environment of people than have done you wrong.
