TV weather coverage was excessive

KWWL is at it yet again. We had a bit of wind and rain tonight. So why does their weather team always feel the need to preempt network programming just to hear themselves talk endlessly about clouds, rain, wind, and lightning?

Thank you to KGAN and KCRG who understand TV is primarily for entertainment, and unless there's a clear need to interrupt programming, such as a tornado on the ground, simply run crawlers at the bottom of the screen to keep us informed and a small map on the side. They don't feel the need to take up a third of the TV screen for unnecessary graphics and blank space, as KWWL does.

Folks, the only way to stop this is to complain to KWWL. If you're fed up too, then write or call KWWL and tell them that you too are tired of it and want to watch your shows without needless minute to minute commentary on the weather.
