The Weather Channel also provides forecasts for terrestrial and satellite radio stations, newspapers, and websites, and maintains an extensive online presence at weather.com.

The Weather Channel was founded in 1981 by meteorologist and former Chicago weather personality John Coleman and Frank Batten.

The name comes from the timing of the segment, as the times it airs end in "8" ( 9:18, 9:28, etc.). "Local on the 8s" airs in ten minute intervals.
