Direct TV recently dropped the "Weather Channel" but apparently
replaced it with something called "WeatherNation TV".

Been watching it this morning off and on. I think I like it better.
It's like what the Weather Channel was before it became big and started
with all those extra shows.

The temp here dropped 18 degrees in the last hour and the wind picked
up. We're beginning to get freezing rain, aka "frain." At the moment,
the wind is coming out of the north, but it shifts around a lot.

You're having it much worse than we are. Our temp was 36F at 7:30 and is now 27F. And, you're
probably 15 miles south of me.

They pretty lost me when they added all of those "reality" shows. I
tune in for weather, not crap like: “Coast Guard Alaska,” “Hawaii Air
Rescue,” “Highway Thru Hell,” “Hurricane Hunters,” “Lifeguard!” and
“Prospectors.”

I'm good with the new channel. I wish them well.

Low thirties and snowing here...... left 70 degrees and salt air
yesterday for this. This sucks.

Nettable, too. Not bad. Looks like a smart phone app with a voice over.

I hear you on the reality shows on the Weather Channel. The new one is
better, methinks. They discuss current weather.

I be on the south coast of MA, just about halfway between Boston and
the beginning of the Cape (10 miles north of Plymouth). Right in the
heart of the Blizzard Warnings.

Getting old. Time to move.
