It could be permanent. remember we're not average viewers. The average viewer could care less if WC was 1 hour short or longer.

Weather Center sure has shortened a lot over the years. It was not even five years ago when WC aired up to 13 hours a day, and now apparently it airs just one hour a day (at least during the week).

I think everyone here owes it to themselves to ***** up a storm by using the assistance request form there. TWC needs to at least know that their changes aren't universally popular, especially considering that TWC is now essentially off the air during two big severe weather hours of the day.


Done.

Dear The Weather Channel,

The addition of the 3 PM ET block of long-form programming on weekdays is a terrible decision. Having two straight hours with no live weather on The Weather Channel is just an absolutely horrible mistake.

People want to see the weather LIVE, not what would happen if a tornado struck some city or hear about some kid getting struck by lightning in his favorite pair of shorts.

Please remove at least one of the two afternoon hours of long-form programming.

I like it. It's demanding, yet kind at the same time.

Good message Billy. :yes:

So let me get the new (terrible) schedule straight for the afternoon. All times are eastern.

2 PM to 3 PM: It Could Happen Tomorrow (two thirty-minute episodes)
3 PM to 4 PM: Full Force Nature (two thirty-minute episodes)
4 PM to 5 PM: Weather Center (only one hour)
5 PM to 7 PM: PM Edition

Is this correct? :unsure:

Because they don't want to show Storm Stories or Forecast Earth.

Is TWC still considering syndicating Storm Stories?

I was thinking they'd bring Atmospheres back on the air after seeing how they put clips of the show on TWC's Bluebox website, but I guess not.
