Once school starts..it will be in the afternoon when I come home.  I usually always have tWC on during homework.

I don't turn to TWC during severe weather.  Local stations, by far, have the most clear, complete coverage. (duh :P)

But, I am glued to TWC during a hurricane or Tropical storm

I rarely see any severe weather coverage on my local channels. Ever. Even during an extremely rare tornado warning, they'll cut-in for a minute during commercials, and go back to normal programming. I'm more likely to see mention of local severe weather on The Weather Channel than I am on my local affiliates. (ESPECIALLY the local CBS affiliate)

Back on-topic:
I usually watch TWC in the morning, prior to leaving for work. I actually forecast the weather myself, but I like to see their take on the forecast. Plus, I don't always have time to get on the computer to check radar and local observations, so the LF fills that gap.

For those interested...my username is derived from Tropical Storm Ernesto's Storm Alert fame. As most know, this was a ridiculous move by The Weather Channel, considering Ernesto was quite weak. The name is intended to be taken in a sarcastic tone.

I like to watch TWC when there's severe wx in my area, primetime hours (because of the music), any large weather events and whenever new music begins to play. (1st of September or October)

 What i am about to post is problary :offtopic:

During severe weather, my local ABC station wont cut in at all, my local NBC would only cut in if its really really bad and my local CBS would normally cut in comercials.

This is a response to Ernestos post. Back on Topic, I watch TWC little when school begins. I do my homework with TWC on or in front of my computer

Same here, thus I am voting "other."

Usually it's early afternoons and late evenings/overnight when nothing good is on, so that's usually the time I watch TWC.
