DirecTV Drops Weather Channel

I have mixed feelings about Weather Channel/DirecTV divorce over fees.
Good weather info, the new Weather Nation is not as good on weather and forecast info.
Weather Channel was an agit prop site for warmers–silly stuff.
I loved their show on big boy toys–earthmovers and such, and ice truck drivers and extreme weather jobs.

Weather Nation has to pick it up to make more pertinent info available and more easily accessed.
Their forecasts are not available all the time and site specific weather is not better.
