Joe Biden sat down with The Weather Channel’s Stephanie Abrams for an interview.
The topic was climate change and extreme weather as Biden visited the Grand Canyon on Tuesday.
The Weather Channel said that the full interview will air on the network on Wednesday starting at 6 a.m. Et on America’s Morning Headquarters. It will be replayed throughout the day on the channel’s streaming app.
The White House has been focusing in part on Biden appearances in non-traditional media, in as much as The Weather Channel is an alternative to Beltway media. Last month, Biden sat for an interview for Jay Shetty’s On Purpose podcast.
Ali Zaidi, Biden’s national climate adviser, was asked by a reporter Monday about a Washington Post poll that showed most people — 57% — disapprove of the president’s handling of climate change. That is despite the passage last year of the Inflation Reduction Act,...

When President Joe Biden visits Florida on Wednesday, he will be seeing for himself the destructive impact of Hurricane Ian, which has claimed more than 100 lives, wiped out entire neighborhoods and left questions of the timing of evacuation orders.
Before the storm made landfall, networks dispatched crews, and eventually their major anchors, but even as there was anticipation of a major disaster, correspondents on the ground reported with expressions of surprise at the ultimate scale, scope and intensity of the hurricane and its impact.
ABC News chief meteorologist Ginger Zee, CBS News lead national correspondent David Begnaud, CNN chief climate correspondent Bill Weir, Fox Weather correspondent Robert Ray, NBC News correspondent Steve Patterson and The Weather Channel’s Stephanie Abrams separately shared their experiences covering Ian and the aftermath.
Most of them have a long track record of covering the storms — and some see Ian as unusual in its intensification...

Category 4 Hurricane Ian made landfall this afternoon near Fort Myers, Florida with maximum sustained winds of 155 mph. In doing so, it became the fifth-largest storm to hit the U.S. mainland — at least in recorded history — and the Weather Channel was there to cover it.
Meteorologist Jim Cantore was at ground zero to document the storm’s arrival, an assignment that is not without its risks.
Cantore was doing a live man-on-the-street report in sustained 61 mph winds — with gusts to 110 mph — when he was blown backward as a tree branch shot across the street, hit him in the leg and knocked him over.
Hurricane Ian: Deadline’s Full Coverage
The footage also gives a sense of just how hard Cantore has to struggle to remain in place — much less upright — further evidence of which is the street sign blown down behind him as he grabs onto another for balance.

CBS News hasn’t put the same kind of spotlight on weather as many of its rivals, but that may all be about to change as quickly as a shift in the wind.
The Paramount Global news unit is teaming with The Weather Channel to bring more reporting on weather and climate to CBS News programs including “CBS Mornings” and “The CBS Evening News,” as well as the division’s streaming efforts. Some of the most popular Weather Channel personalities — including Stephanie Abrams, Jim Cantore and Mike Bettes — are likely to turn up on CBS News programs in reports that originate from Weather Channel’s Atlanta headquarters. CBS viewers will also get to see augmented-reality technology that helps depict what a specific community might look like while in the midst of a tornado, snow or rain. The two media outlets will also team up to cover weather and climate news...

Accelerating climate change and its far-flung effects have fast become the most important story in the news cycle. But that isn’t always the stuff that gets talked about or tweeted — or the biggest ratings.
Part of the issue? Shifts in the environment happen gradually over time, not usually in a violent, shocking moment that can be captured by cameras. Increasingly frequent bursts of severe weather are changing that dynamic, but most news outlets have tried to address the story with special reports and new teams of reporters that are add-ons to their journalism infrastructure.
Now the Weather Channel is making climate change a bigger part of its overall focus. The cable network over the next several months plans to infuse climate coverage into its morning, afternoon and even entertainment programs in a way that Nora Zimmett, the outlet’s chief content officer, believes will make for reports that audiences...

Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande made a surprise appearance on The Weather Channel’s “Amhq” forecast this morning (May 27) to report that it is, indeed, raining.
The pop singers, who released their collaborative single “Rain on Me” on Friday (May 22), joined meteorologists Jim Cantore, Stephanie Abrams and Jen Carfagno to promote their new single with a hilarious video. In the clip, Gaga and Grande stand under umbrellas while not-so-natural “rain” falls on them.
Says Gaga at the top of the clip: “Today, it is pouring rain. We are soaking wet. And while some are complaining of the recent downpour, we would like to celebrate the rain.”
Delivering a forecast dripping in sarcasm fits perfectly with the central theme of “Rain on Me” — appreciating life and living it to the fullest, even through its darkest moments.
The two cheekily include lyrics from their new song throughout the forecast, with Grande saying: “Rain on me,...

The Weather Channel has apologized to viewers for any inconvenience after it was knocked off the air Thursday morning by what it said was a malicious software attack on the network.
“We experienced issues with this morning’s live broadcast following a malicious software attack on the network, the channel said in a statement on Twitter. “We were able to restore programming quickly through backup mechanisms. Federal law enforcement is actively investigating the issue. We apologize for any inconvenience to viewers as we work to resolve the matter.”
The attack occurred during the network’s morning show, Amhq, which was scheduled to start at 6 Am Et. Instead of live programming, viewers saw a taped episode of Heavy Rescue: 401. The show returned to the air at 7:39 Am Et with a commercial break, and at 7:43 a.m., its anchors explained what had occurred.

For the first time in 39 years, the weather has gone unreported, due to a dormant Al Roker. The longtime NBC Today show fixture wasn't stumped by a cold front or stuck in a freak blizzard; he simply overslept. The weatherman on Tuesday missed his early-morning call for The Weather Channel's Wake Up With Al, on which he had been working alongside co-host Stephanie Abrams since the show's July 20 debut. The hour-long show airs at 6 am Et, but did so today without America's favorite weatherman. Photos: NBC's 'Today' Celebrates 60th Anniversary Roker unabashedly tweeted the
