WAVY Weather Station

WAVY Weather Station

The WAVY Weather Station is a local cable channel, formerly seen as a digital subchannel of WAVY-DT and later WVBT-DT 43.2. The WAVY Weather Station broadcasts taped weather segments by WAVY-TV's meteorologists. It also shows live Super Doppler 10 imagery and Super Doppler 10 WeatherNet data.

History

The WAVY Weather Station started in 1995 as Local Weather Station, or LWS. It was one of the first 24-hour cable weather channels for LIN TV, the name was also used on other LIN-owned stations such as WISH-TV and WANE-TV. The name was changed to WAVY Weather Station in 2003.

The WAVY Weather Station was available over-the-air as a digital subchannel, but was pulled around New Year's Day 2007 when FCC rules were tightened regarding E/I programming and EAS testing and alerts on subchannels.
