Seems like a tsunami warning for the west coast US/Hawaii is a good time to break to it on your channel that’s about weather


Yeah when there is an earthquake first thing I’d do is check the weather channel. I know you probably associate TWC with general disaster coverage because of hurricanes…..but that’s stupid.

Feels more weathery vs a show about trees


The literal premise of the show is them struggling to get the job done despite severe weather conditions.

Kinda like MTV and Bud Light.

Somebody had a brilliant idea on how to make it better.

Canada's version of the weather channel is still the 90's version, state run TV.

I don't know about the channel, but the app sucks. I used to use it, but now it won't even open on my phone.

What do earthquakes and tsunamis have to do with weather? It’s the weather channel not the all natural hazards channel.

The Schwartz guy was a sleeper. Looked kinda shady and would say weird shite while doing his presentations.

Some of the most relaxing video to wake up to or fall asleep to.


There’s a Spotify playlist called “90s Weather Channel - Local on the 8s”. Major nostalgia / relaxation vibes

They are pretty much a propaganda machine for "climate change" now. Every other show or article on their app pushes it.

I miss the OG WC.

They are considered geological events. The weather doesn't produce them.

Except in very rare cases, it isn't. Please tell me what meteorological events cause most tsunamis.

it’s not. It’s a geological event in most cases. Unless it’s caused by some sort of weather phenomenon (hurricane, etc.)
