As promised, Fox Weather Wild was knocked out for extended severe weather coverage tonight.
-
Well, this came out of left field. Leila Rahimi will come in and split sports anchoring duties with Jeff Blanzy and Mike Berman.
-
Turns out FWX’s mascot has a name.
-
Fox Weather just indicated they intend to go live all night for the Nor'Easter, as well.
-
Night Light is basically a loop of a 3D map with weather conditions set to calming music. No OCMs at all.
-
They are doing live updates during FWW repeats, so that’s a bit of a relief. I assume they’ll break in if warranted.
-
So Fox Weather Wild is basically a looser version of their rolling weather coverage with a focus on extreme weather.
-
The Across America segment finally got refreshed with different meteorologists after the first 6am ET roll. I guess they're only doing it twice daily.
-
It’s also available via the Fox News app. It was also advertised as being available on Tubi, but it has yet to show up there.
-
The O&O involvement starts with the “Across America” segment which plays twice every hour.
-
Well, turns out Sky Dome is only from 9am-Noon ET. America’s Weather Center is the main afternoon block, apparently.
-
The livestream is finally up, and it's streaming at 60fps, at least on iPad.
-
Appears the 3D radar is a feature only on iOS for now. The Android version is still a garden-variety mobile app radar.
-
According to NewscastStudio, it's taking over the space that was previously the Fox News Deck.
-
This LA Times piece says that FWX will also be offered on the Fox O&O subchannels in January, so not likely. Yeah, it’s my fault for linking that video in the first place.
-
As an addendum, here's a little taste of what live coverage will look like.
-
Appears Fox Weather had an accidental soft-launch on FS2 this afternoon (FS2 has since went back to regular programming)
-
Variety write-up.
-
One week out from launch day, four new meteorologists announced: Marissa Torres (from WPIX), Ian Oliver (WFLA), Kiyanna Lewis (News 12), and Jane Minar (off-air meteorologist promoted).
-
The Scripps National Spelling Bee is moving from ESPN to Ion/Bounce TV.
-
She's going to Fox News.
-
Appears Fox is breaking in new graphics for MLB.
-
We have a launch date: October 25th.
-
KATU is not airing morning and afternoon news today so their staff can attend a mental health event. Their 11pm news will air as scheduled.
