Weather Channel HD

Does this seem like a complete waste of HD bandwidth to anyone else?

Hurray, now my local RADAR and its green blobs are in HD!

Your local radar AIN'T gonna be in HD anyway - it's ONLY the national feed that's in HD.

Again, who gives a shit. 2 anchors at a desk does not need to be in HD...

If I want to see extreme weather in HD, i just look outside in the winter.

I don't even have the weather channel HD. Where the hell did they deploy that? And the Discovery channel. I would love to have that one. Where is it? I don't have them.

I've got it.

Not even their actual weather reports are in HD! All you get in HD is the national background feed for "your local forecast" and some of their series like Storm Stories and such crap.

Remember when The Weather Channel used to show weather?
