The Weather Channel Coming to YouTube TV

[cyfanatic]

This is the one channel I would like added to YTTV...and it looks like it is going to happen. I don't plan my day around the weather information I hear on The Weather Channel but I enjoy listening/seeing the general stories that are happening across the country. As for whatever else the Allen Media Group is or what it will bring to YTTV...I have no idea!

Haven't watched the weather channel since college days basically. Have it, but the internet kinda killed it for me. In college, we would watch it for all the smokin' weather ladies they had.

Yeah...they have had some "talent" they put in front of the cameras for sure! I don't want to call it "mindless" viewing but it serves that purpose for me as it isn't sports or politics and some of the stories I find fascinating (weather related phenomena).

Will there be a location specific “Local On the 8’s”? Also can I set it to be circa 1994 graphics?

Yep...but I would guess most people don't tune into TWC to see how they should dress that day...right? Local weather people do a great job...this is a different beast.

I kind of forgot about "Local on the 8's"! I can still hear that voice...

I was wondering how YTTV was going to justify their next price hike. I'm sure the weather channel will bring in at least a $10 increase.

I doubt that...but I get it. I need to search up whatever Allen Media Group is because it says they will be bringing other content to YTTV but The Weather Channel will be first.

The only other programming they have are some courtroom tv "shows" and then access to a few local TV stations in the Midwest.

So...nothing that will interest me I guess! But I am happy to have TWC.
