I would bounce between them and KCRG all the time up there. coverage will suffer because of this move.

It’s too bad. They typically covered the northern part of the territory better than KCRG and KGAN. But I guess we’re going to have to rely on the internets now.
we got 9.5 inches at least. that was total when i watched news and it was still snowing.
Been snowing all day in CR. Maybe an inch or two accumulation on average. The bigger "issue" was that with the deep cold pool we have been in the salt/brine did not work as the roads were very cold soaked.
Gray and Tegna have also done some hubbing of weather too. Hope they don't go as extreme as Allen has. It's a shame. Makes me worry about my long term viability in the industry.
I imagine KGAN and KCRG will pick up the slack. Most people north of Waterloo would probably tune into KWWL for severe weather so no reason to go overkill, especially if there were multiple areas of severe weather.
From 29th street to Wilson, there were 3 accidents just on the south bound. Cripes people can't drive.
Ames roads were crap but they're always crap whenever there is any accumulation since they don't bother plowing.
Quite the difference between North Florida and South Florida:
Florida weather just playing a little game of 'Just the tip,' just seeing how it feels.
Allen Media is trying to unring the bell.
Sounds like they're backtracking on their decision to drop local mets.

2/3 of the way down the peninsula here. (Basically straight E. of the northern edge of Lake Okeechobee.) Yesterday was horrendous. 40 MPH winds and rain "pellets" all day long in varying degrees of intensity. In 14 years of coming here this is the worst week of weather I've experienced. Haven't seen the sun or moon in about a week.
I know you're all "You poor baby!" but it really was pretty bad. Think of those windy cold rainy days in JTS in November and you have a pretty good idea.
By Sunday or Monday it should be back to more pleasant temps
This will go down exactly like it did when IHeart backtracked on the KXNO lay offs.
They'll keep it as it is for a couple years, and then slowly start to knock people off one at a time until one day you wake up and they're all gone.
