Guest Milwaukee12 Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 WTMJ - Today's TMJ4 Weather Plus Weather Center (The Paul Joseph Weather Center) WITI - FOX6 Weather Center WISN - Weather Watch 12 Weather Center WDJT - First Alert Weather These are the names to the best to my knowledge. WTMJ re-named their weather center after Paul Joseph when he retired. The rest are not very inventive at all.

WFIE: "14 First Alert Dual Doppler" (they recently installed a second station-owned doppler radar atop (or near) the hospital in Owensboro, KY ). WEHT: News 25 First Warning Doppler Weather Center (originally the name came from the system the station bought (in the early-90s, and which is now ubiquitous across the country) that show the county-by-county storm warning map. When they purchased their own doppler radar system a few years later, the name stuck around) Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/239-weather-center-names/#findComment-14116 Share on other sites More sharing options...
