The Weather Channel really should be live weather, 24/7. A few recorded informative segments lasting a few minutes occasionally, but other than that, simply weather. They have meteorologists there around the clock anyway, so it is not like it costs much more. They could have a second weather channel, and call it something like Weather2 or Real Weather. That could be recorded programs. So if someone wants live weather, go to The Weather Channel. If you want to watch recorded shows about weather when the weather is rather quiet, move up one on the dial. It could be that simple. They could even use the second channel for emergency purposes if something is really bad where they wanted to try to cover an area locally. (better to use local stations, but they could still try to cover it)

And of course, no more naming winter storms. I just saw a funny picture on Facebook. Someone took a screenshot of a graphic TWC has about their current storm where the first letter, "J", was blended in with the background. (They have an animation of their storm name and for a moment during the animation the letter blends in.) And that spells...
