Re: Changes probably coming soon at WPXD (ION).

I personally think we should have a 24-hour weather subchannel again. I remember when 4 and 7 had theirs... they came in pretty handy during severe weather. Someone higher up at either 2, 4, or 7 should think about starting one up again. Hell, I still miss Weatherscan on Comcast... We have TWO wx s...

Russell to WHMI

According to his Facebook page, Craig Russell and the Afternoon Hustle are headed to WHMI starting March 15th. Craig’s title is PD/afternoon host. The music should get a nice freshening up... hopefully they keep the full-service aspect by keeping TOH news.

Re: WVFM got JACKED up!

Did Glen Dillon leave? I don't keep tabs on that market like I once did. If no jobs were lost due to the flip itself, that's good. Glen left for KFR many moons ago... somewhere around 2004-05. He works at WMU now and runs all print and voice media... including WIDR 89.1. Sent from my iPhone using T...

Re: 10”?

Here near Paw Paw the forecast went from 2-4 on Friday, to 3-5 yesterday and 4-7 today. The storm either strengthened, moved more north, or both.

Dave Benson leaving?

Benson is indeed headed to the AM shift on RKR starting Monday. Curious, though, if he is assuming PD duties as well? He is PD of WKMI, but that’s pretty much a title on an automated news talker.

Re: Meteorologist Laura Velasquez joining Fox 17 WXMI Feb 15

Statmanmi, kind of the opposite with Christina Anthony. She left WWMT to work in her home state, yet came back to WWMT. Her popularity in this area is pretty big, so perhaps she did come home again?!? Judging from her posts since she’s been back, I have a feeling Christina really, really loves the w...

Costa to The Ticket

As seen on Facebook, former ESPN 96.1 host Jim Costa is now with 97.1 The Ticket. I’m glad to see him pick up another sports gig.

Re: Multiple reports: Lions to seek to trade Stafford in the offseason

From The Athletic just moments ago... Rodgers is “uncertain” about next year. Stafford could very well jump the pond. I know it’s an in-division trade, but it still could happen... especially now.

Re: I was glad that the weather forecast was off yesterday

MasterB... tell that to my car. A section of a tree came down on my car at about 6am Saturday. No wind, and as you said, ice was down... but the 2” of snow overnight was a moisture-laden “heavy” snow. Power outages in the SW 4 counties were high all day (Berrien, Cass, Van Buren and Allegan).

Re: Local TV stations blow the Christmas Eve & Christmas Day weather forecast

FWIW, over in my area, 6-12” was called for, being in the “prime” lake effect area. Nope. Got 3” at best. Wx in MI is tricky... thank the lakes for that.

WFGR Mornings

Im still trying to figure out what happened to Craig Russell from the morning hustle on WFGR, in years past. I believe he’s working full time mornings at Z-106.3, an all-80’s station in Rapid City, South Dakota. He did spend quite a bit of time at WUPS Houghton Lake. Sent from my iPhone using Tapat...
