Programming Changes in the Forecast for The Weather Channel
Below is an excerpt from an article from TV Week about some programming changes on the way for The Weather Channel:"In its upfront presentations, The Weather Channel will show off new programming, including "Abrams and Bettis on the Weather,'' which will run at 8 p.m. weekdays, pushing "Storm Stories" to 7 p.m., where it replaces the second hour of "P.M. Edition." Hosts Stephanie Abrams-called a "weather goddess" by some fans online-and Mike Bettis will discuss the day's breaking weather news.
"Our Climate With Dr. Heidi Cullen" is a new weekly show about the Earth's climate outlook that will be interactive and include video clips from viewers. Guests will include scientists, politicians and entertainment figures.
Coming to the network in the first quarter of 2007 is "Epic Conditions," which Liz Janneman, senior VP of cable ad sales for The Weather Channel, described as extreme sports meets the most perfect weather conditions, looking at the places where the climate is just right for skiing, snowboarding or golf."
