General Discussion / Re: Celebrating 30 Years of The Weather Channel

I really like the 30th Anniversary images on weather.com, especially the ones showing the logo progressions and the different slogans.

And I had no idea there were so many different logos.   In fact, according to the image (though the '80s logos looked very similar and only had slight modifications to them), the present logo has been used the longest of any logo that has been used at TWC.  So for those of you who thought a logo-change was ridiculous, you may want to think again.

I'm also recording the whole thing except in the morning.

30 years ago today, history was made in the Cable television industry when the idea of a 24/7 Cable Network that would broadcast weather all day every day began. Critics of course saw immediate failure and embarrassment in such a concept and the first few years almost saw predictions from critics come true, but when TWC began doing live reports during Hurricane Season with Hurricane Hugo in 1989, it put the network on the map as a force to be reckoned with that obviously proved those harsh critics to be dead wrong about their quick demise. Today, TWC is one of the most powerful and influential cable networks that exists. Even if you're like me and don't like the direction the network has gone in the past years, it has proven that it can still be a reliable source during historic weather outbreaks such as tornadoes, hurricanes, and blizzards.

As a treat from TWC alum Andre Bernier, below is a Youtube video of the very first hour of TWC's broadcast from May 2, 1982. The first 30 minutes is an inauguration ceremony from Las Vegas, the second half hour is the first 30 minutes of The Weather Channel being braodcasted from their studio in Atlanta, GA.

Weather Channel's Debut May 2, 1982

Thanks for the classic video! I was 1 year old back then. Anyway, Happy Anniversary to The Weather Channel!
