TWC was launched on May 2, 1982.

"You gotta be kidding me!"

We KNOW plenty of you remember this weather moment with Jim Cantore in thundersnow!  

"In 1982, it was a crazy idea.  Was America ready for non-stop weather TV?  The  presentation was primitive though a real passion for weather came through loud and clear." 

"Alot has changed since 1982, but our mission to keep you warm and safe will continue for the next 40 years and beyond."

What happened to Kristina Abernathy of the Weather Channel?

Well, actually The Weather Channel was bought by NBC, who sought to keep the more flamboyant on-screen meteorologists. Kristina, along with Mark Mancuso, Rich Johnson and Kristin Dodd were released from The Weather Channel at the same time.

In March of 2016 Kristina was working as a communications coordinator for Cobb Energy Centre in Atlanta, Georgia.  Kristina was born in Albany, Georgia on May 23, 1970.

Trivia:  Kristina was inducted into the Hair Fan's Hall of Fame in 2003.
