While this existed for some time, I just discovered it this week.. And thank God I did.
There is a special place in everyone’s heart for the OLD Weather Channel. Those 90s graphics.. the elevator musaaac…
Just the stats ma’am. It gave you what you needed to know every several minutes, followed by some talking head forecasters giving you the nationwide outlook and, during the winter time, mentally prepping you for the next big Nor’Easter that–maybe never happened–was about to come..
For those weather nerds and news junkies of the 90s, the Weather Channel (channel 30 if I recall correctly for 90s Service Electric 🙂 ) was the prime spot.. you glued your eyes on the network JUST IN CASE the forecast changed..
They were in charge. They told YOU when the winter weather would become dangerous.. when the spring storms would spawn tornadoes.
They controlled every bit of the climate and weather info you got, and thanks to that awful but wonderful ‘local forecast’ music, you happily allowed it into your life. And forever your memory..
The retro is a memory. But thanks to this Youtube channel, https://www.youtube.com/@cc17926, it is also still existent.
For real… you can watch REAL weather now.. you can see the forecast, the latest observations. Just like it exited way back in the 20th century..
This may be one of the most special YouTube channels ever found and bookmarked.. It will now be background sound in several rooms of my home.
IF YOU WANTED TO DONATE, like we did, follow the link here.. It needs to continue.. this is so nostalgic it gives you the deep feelies..
