New Show on The Weather Channel?
« on: September 12, 2008, 11:30:08 PM »
So I looked at my TV Guide tonight, and starting at 4:30 am, a new show called Sunrise Weather is suppose to start on The Weather Channel. It's a 30 minute show. Anyone know anything about this? :thinking:

There's discussion about this in the "New Schedule to come June 2nd" thread under Programming. It was supposed to start last week, but Hanna prevented that. Now Ike is doing the same this weekend. It's quite reminiscent of what Ophelia and Rita did to Weekend View in 2005, pushing that debut back two weeks.

It's weird that they're starting a 30 minute show on the weekend early in the morning.

They should cancel Weekend Outlook.

Ya think they're going to show "Sunrise Weather" Sunday morning, or will they be in full Ike mode?

I'm going to record just in case. I think whether or not they do long-form overnight will be a good indicator of whether or not there's a chance of Sunrise Weather starting. If there's no long-form, it will probably just be a three-hour WO with two anchors for the whole thing, just like last weekend.

From the way things look at this point, Sunrise Weather will start Saturday.

Eventually I think they'll cancel weekend outlook and have sunrise weather as their "early morning show" for the weekends.

kind of sounds like the name of a weather channel segment if you ask me.  :yes:

I can't see TWC having Sunrise Weather on weekends. Doesn't make sense. The sun rises during the week too, not just on weekends...

Well, today, Sunrise Weather opener at 4:30, yet with Weekend Outlook graphics, theme, and set colors with Ray Stagich hosting... interesting...

ps: I know I'm bumping a thread, but it's relevant! I swear! :yes:

It's not bumping unless it's done solely for attention.

Anyway, the opener graphic is pretty interesting; it would be nice to see an entire show spun out of this, but logistically, it seems quite odd.

Unless they were to air this on weekdays too, this show is pointless. As I said in an earlier post, the sun doesn't rise just on weekends, plus in most areas the sun doesn't rise until after 5AM even during the summer, and after 6-7AM during the winter. Thus, it makes no sense to air such a show at 4:30 am on weekends only.

That sure looks like an interesting open. But, I doubt we'll see a whole show come out of this. As others have said, it just makes no sense.
