The Weather Channel Weather scan

Question... Why did you take down weather scan on 12/30/22? That was my favorite show. Can you please explain why you did this... Please respond, I will understand if you tell me why you did this... Also please if you can bring it back. I would love to see weather scan on tv again... I love the channel too much for it to just disappear on me. The channel that existed was all time favorite... Please, please bring it back to tv I beg of you please, I bet others would appreciate that too... Just saying. My family loved it too. Thank you for reading and understanding this.

Desired outcome: I would like it to air as a channel only for weather scan as it was, and please tell me the channel once you air it again.

The Weather Channel Stepanie Abrahams.

Who chooses Stephanie Abrams wardrobe. ?

Her dresses look like a kindergarten little girls clothing !

Not a joke !

Dresses SO short and sleeves look ridiculous. Looks like childrens clothing.

The others do not dress like this !

Looks like mis sized outfits !

Sometimes the bat wing blouses are the opposite. So awful fitting !

Give her some material on her skirts and dresses. She is not 10 years old !

These dresses she wears are hideous.

We all want to be young and have attention, but please.

Get her some wardrobe help !?

Also the Pttrn Program is a "miss" boring !

Desired outcome: Please pay attention to this wardrobe mess . Stephanie Abrams.More time is spent on Jim Cantories must have attire !!!!

We are at sunspot maximum. Sunspot max = warmer temps, sunspot minimum = cooler temps.

Instead of pushing the hoax of man-made climate change -- hotter -- and showing your ignorance of the sun's effect, tell the truth about the correlation between the the sunspot cycle and earth's temps.

The Weather Channel Reporters

During Hurricane Ian, a few of your reporters were out in the middle of the Hurricane. I know they were trying to show the strength of the storm but they could do that from shelter with the camera operators showing the strength from a safer location. I know one of your reporters got hit with a frond and during his report almost got blow off his feet. Another reporter nearly got hit with flying debris

I believe you might be encouraging others to try going out in the storm. Please reconsider having your reporters going outside. To me it is irresponsible.

We have relied on your weather reports to help us through storms and know your expertise is invaluable but please ask your reporters not to be out in the middle of the storm.

Desired outcome: Provide safe reporting during dangerous storms

The Weather Channel Stop calling mobile homes “manufactured” homes!!!

Several Times on air, your reporters have called flimsy mobile homes “manufactured“ homes, and mentioned that manufactured homes are not safe during a storm. This is entirely untrue.

Manufactured homes include modular homes, which are built to a much higher standard than stick built homes in the same location. They are built in a factory and are required to meet the standards of every state to which they may ship. Once they are on their foundation, they are every bit as safe as any other home.

You are doing a great disservice to the manufacturers of modular homes when implying that they are unsafe.

Absolutely people should not live in flimsy double wide trailers as permanent housing in a place that has hurricanes. Do not lump modular homes in with mobile homes, calling them all “manufactured”.

Desired outcome: Do a program on types of manufactured homes to show the difference. At least stop your reporters from using the term manufactured homes incorrectly

Seriously? Mobile homes ARE mass manufactured regardless of where it occurs. They are easier to build and ship that way. And anything that is MOBILE is easier to move or be moved than something that is ANCHORED. That is why it is called "mobile". While all homes are potentially vulnerable during a strong storm, the statistics speak for themselves that mobile homes are the most vulnerable to destruction and dislocation. Just like automobiles, campers, etc. It is what it is. If you like mobile homes that's your choice. If you sell them be honest and deal with the facts about their safety. But don't pretend they are as safe as a secured house.

The Weather Channel Ads on your app

I opened your app to check the local weather and a ad popped up that I won a iPad and all I had to do was pay the shipping fee and as soon as I put in the information they began to take money out of my bank account multiple times causing me to disable my debt card which was an inconvenience to me i felt that your app was a reputable one but apparently not

The Weather Channel Weather information for The Delmarva Peninsula

When the term is used as a noun, it should not be preceded by the article t-h-e. Just Delmarva as in "severe weather will pass through Delmarva this evening." If preceded by the article t-h-e, it becomes an adjective, as in "rain tonight on the Delmarva Peninsula." You announcers sound foolish when that basic grammatical difference is ignored, and you are passing incorrect information to the rest of the country.

Desired outcome: Make the correction

The Weather Channel Mrfluffyfriend

It is a full blown scam. Look at their ratings 1.2 stars. Stealing money from everyone plus the product is junk but if you open it you can’t return it it comes vacuumed packed. So you must open it to see that it’s [censored]! Then they won’t take it back. It’s garbage if you are unlucky enough to actually get it. Shame on yall for letting these thiefs advertise on your site. I huees you are also [censored]s to the mighty dollar.

Desired outcome: Check your advertisers more carefully. After all it all comes BACK ON YOU !!

The Weather Channel Program interruptions

It's amazing, that without fail when you're watching an episode on the WC they will interrupt the show with some thunderstorm "watch" or " warning".

What is worse is WC will NEVER interrupt their commercials to provide this information, they'll just ruin every show they air. You basically jump from commercial break to the interrupted advisory and by the time the blowhard meteorologist is done stumbling through the prompter script its back to commercials. Absolutely pathetic!

At least you've proven where your priorities stand.

Desired outcome: Stop interrupting shows for [censored] advisories! If an advisory merits a programming interruption then do it during commercials!

The Weather Channel Local weather

I live in Newnan, GA and we used to get our local weather both in the crawl at the bottom of the screen and on the 8's. A week or so ago, the weather channel was off air for a couple of hours and since it came back, now all we get is national weather in the crawl and on the 8's. Why the change and are we going to get our local weather back or do I need to find another weather source?

Desired outcome: Return of the local weather information.

The Weather Channel Program interruptions

Watch the highway thru hell program and it gets frustrating when every 5 minutes or so you break in with a weather update. Kind of ridiculous since the weather can't change that drastically in that short of time.

90 percent of the report is almost a repeat of the previous time.

Give the viewers a break

Desired outcome: Less interruptions to the programs.Surely we will survive without a weather update every 5 minutes in nothing major is happening

On more than one occasion i have asked siri for weather updates and he goes straight to you.

Once again your predictions are wrong AND WASTING MY TIME.

My next step will be complaining on a higher level …

Heads up

Desired outcome: Het a more accurate prediction over 24 hours or shut up on siti

The Weather Channel Advertising

I have enjoyed the Weather Channel for many years. What I'm now realizing is the obnoxious "Buffalo" and "Panda" video game ads are causing me to watch it a lot less. In fact, I had to shut it down because I got a headache!

The Weather Channals segments are Informative, newsworthy, and grabs ones interest in the state of not only the

United States but the world as a whole.

In addition, those segments get the word out. Sort of like the Domino Effect.

I hope this 🙏 😔 gets the word out. With other people commenting, maybe you show less ads and get rid of those two ads completely.

Please!

Desired outcome: Less advertising and complete removal of the "Buffalo and 🐼 " ad.

The Weather Channel Incorrect Local Weather on scroll of TWC screen

Live in Washington DC. Cable service via RCN provides TWC. Until recently, I would receive local weather information at the bottom of the screen and DC area radar through "Local on the 8's". Since January 20, I am getting local weather and radar for northeast PA (Allentown) rather than for the DC area. Spent over an hour with RCN trying to resolve the issue. I finally was told that the problem was TWC feed and did not occur at RCN. Please investigate and correct. Thank you.

Desired outcome: Restore local DC area weather info on TWC scroll

The Weather Channel Programming

How do y'all feel after quitting us viewers by providing up to date tornado information the other night and going to some of your goofy [censored] shows. Any blood on your hands when tornados were still on the rampage at night, people getting hurt and killed and you "The Weather Channel" didn't report a damn thing until your regular weather program came on at 5:00 am central time. Shame on y'all. Thank goodness that the Weather Nation channel was reporting "weather" 24 hours a day the way they do. As far as I am concerned "The great weather channel" failed miserably. You have almost become the commercial channel. It is hard to get a good weather report a lot of the time due to the excessive commercials and if the least old little weather event is happening in the northeast part of the country the rest of us are basically forgotten.

The Weather Channel Weather underground

I am trying since August 15th to update the location of our station (IQIRYATS3).
I sent 4-5 mail messages through the system (https://support.weather.com/s/email-us?language=en_US) including also a .KML file with the exact locations of the old and the new station.
I DIDN'T EVEN RECEIVED AND ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT MY MAIL MESSAGES ARRIVED.

Please let me know what should I have to do in order to update the location that is now mistaken by about two miles.

Thank you

The Weather Channel Radar format

Since the format has changed, the actual radar image does not match the actual time. The "now" on the displayed time scale is off real time by about 4 hours. I don't know if I'm getting past and/or future display. I can't even correlate the actual display with anything real. Do I need to change a setting?

Desired outcome: need a fix for this

The Weather Channel Weather

I was checking the weather where I live and it says that is was sunny and it was cloudy and raining. We actually saw lighting. The weather channel said that is wasn't supposed to rain until 10 but is was raining at 9. Therefore I think the weather should be updated.

Desired outcome: Weather change

The Weather Channel Format change

Belleville/Trenton weather ch 20 SD. Your new format only shows a very scaled down version of channel 767 HD. It's very hard to read the red alerts unless one is right in front of screen. To watch the doppler radar for rain is hard to see with a background of green trees and just a name of the town. A lot of business's in this area depend on your weather reports to operate and a lot have a lot of local advertising on channel 20 SD which is not available now. My tv carrier is Cogeco cable . Please change back. [protected]@hotmail.ca. 455 Cannifton rd, n. Belleville Ont. kok1ko. Masks Yard Sales. Thankyou

DRESS CODE:

Why is there not a dress code for the weather channel personnel? It is ridiculous how they dress. This morning Abrams had on a pink mini skirt, does she know how old she is? Other girl had on a red dress so tight, she must have been poured into it. Jim, someone please hem his pants, he is always walking on them. Why has this turned into a clown show? Reynolds always looks nice and several of the others too, but these 3 need somebody to dress them. Please, somebody help them.
