Brooklyn, NY (Kennedy Arpt) - Weatherstar 4000
My parents took me and my brothers to Florida in June 94, I was 14, me and my brother came weirdly obsessed with the weather channel. It's a great memory re watching this.
Yooo same here 😂
Yup yup! Why did TWC become an obsession? My friends and I would tape it, then pass around a tape like it was a joint 🤣. Probably we were still avoiding girls.
@@Xenogears76 that *is* weird
@Xenogears76 I wish I had you as a friend then. I did, too.
I myself was 10 when this aired.
God, the ads, the music, that opening "now it's time for your..."music, the thunderstorm warning beep...such simpler times back in these days for me, and for whatever reason, the weather channel was comfort
I remember the smell of the blanket, the sound of the fan, and the itchy carpet under my elbows while I sat up very late with my aunt in the summers watching Weather Channel because it was too hot to sleep. Love this! ❤
I really love these old weather channel clips. Brings me back to when I was young.
Me also, love that smooth jazz
So do I!
Yeah. I loved the visual look of the local forecast bits, mixed with the smooth jazz.
brings me back to before i was born, man i wish i could live through this
I found it !!! The first song was my happy get up and get ready for work song ! I just moved to Phoenix from NY and was trying to find a good career to begin my adult life. There was discouragement. But when that song came on, I felt encouraged. Never thought I'd hear it again.
I love that song too, Morning in Martinique by EKO
I did
YES😅! Such a good upbeat jazz tune! This song still SLAPS. I could literally listen to it all day. I wonder what this one is called because I'd love to dl it lol. I have a bunch of weather channel music on my phone lol
This made me want to cry so much....I miss those songs and that old tone..... Makes me sad of what the weather channel has become
I feel the same way for the same reasons.
Me too, I would fall asleep to the weather channel during high school ❤️
Even commercials suck now.
Me too. It makes me sad to what this weather channel has turned into because now they air Junk shows and they now even play game shows called funny you should ask so that's why i don't watch the weather channel that much anymore and they don't play Jazz music anymore either so i now watch WeatherNation Accuweather & fox weather for weather information as they are what this channel used to be before Junk shows were played.
Totally get it!!!
when i was a little kid, my dad was an editor at the fresno bee. he used to work nights and get home at two or three in the morning. he liked to sit on the couch and quietly watch the weather channel to wind down before going to bed.
i would often be awake when he came home. i've always had trouble sleeping. i would come out to see him and he would hold me in his lap, and we would watch the weather channel for a while, together in the dark.
i miss that. the smell of my dad's aftershave, and the quiet elevator music, and the changing maps.
in 1994, i was three.
1994...I remember it well, the good ol days. I was 11 years old, and the internet was a rarity back then. If you needed to know the weather, you'd change the channel to The Weather Channel and listen to relaxing jazz as the weather information rolled through.
This comment gave me goosebumps.
I miss this weather Channel, all weather, great music, total relaxation. Dave Schwartz saying "hello friends". A part of my youth for certain.
Back in the 1990s and early 2000s I traveled a lot and every time time I would check into a hotel the first thing I would do is turn on TWC...It always gave me a cozy and relaxing feeling...Miss those days and the old school TWC
Me too !
I miss the old weather channel from when it was 24/7 weather it played Jazz Music during the local forecast and no stupid reality garbage shows, Now it's all reality shows so i watch WeatherNation where they have 24/7 weather they play Jazz Music and it's what this channel used to be.
Same bro, same. WeatherNation is a little too spartan, cool, and modern to be a perfect replacement, but it’ll do haha. It needs more smooth jazz and warm fuzziness, but it’s a lot better than the alternative. I’m shocked weather channel nostalgia isn’t mainstream enough for some of these modern channels to make positive changes
😂😂😂😂
I was living in NYC at the time on June 29,1994 i was 9 years old and i had graduated PS 186Q and on June 29,1994 in the morning like around 2 3 or 4AM in the morning i was woken up by thunder that night in Jackson Heights Queens NY and i covered my eyes where i didn't see lightning then i had looked out the window and saw the half moon coming in and out the clouds during the rain and thunder that night and on June 29,1994 my mother had to go to court or something that day and during the day i was at my grandparent's house in Astoria Queens NY having a good time there and in the afternoon like around 1PM the sky got dark and i heard thunder and saw lightning that day and i'll never forget that day and i miss how the weather channel used to be.
I used to tape the weather channel. I still have some of those tapes got some from late 90s to early 2000s but not from 1994 so thanks for posting this I was 4 at the time brings back memories twc has changed alot! And I live in NJ so it's even cooler that the local forecast is near NJ. I can see NJ radar! 😄
Yeah I used to tape TWC too. I am kind of geeky. Taped from 1992-97 or so. I really miss those years. The 90s was a great time to be a teenager:)
@@vonschweringen8321 I was way younger than a teenager i was in my single digits but yeah they were good times
I don’t recall ever having taped it, but I was a latchkey kid in a rural town and TWC was what I hurried home to watch after school in fourth grade haha
Upload them!!!
@@smittywerbenjagermanjensen3216 I would but I don't have a vcr anymore. Could try to put them on a DVD but idk that's alot of work.
I remember jil brown. This was the year after my parents died. A friend of mine was a producer at the weather channel for a while . It was Grace Mitchell.
1:01:54 has the old EBS severe weather alert beep and warning screen if you want to see another bit of nostalgia!
I think I remember it would either be yellow or red lol.
Aw man I remember when the red screen would come on !!
My dad got a job delivering bread in 1994. He remembers that day in the California desert it getting near 120. It was his first and also his last day because of that heatwave.
Who remembers trying to set up their VCR to record Gene Wilder in “The woman in red” on HBO and end up with two hours of the weather channel??
There is something profoundly comforting & relaxing about this
I used to sit n watch the weather channel for hours sometimes back in the 90s when I was 8 9 10 years old...my mom thought i shpuld be a meteorologist when i gotolder....didnt turn out like that but man i miss how it used to be.
It's Saturday morning in 1996
Mom's cooking breakfast.
Dad's reading the paper & sipping on his 2nd pot of coffee.
The dogs are chewing on their toys.
Life is good.
High school summer vacations. I used to watch this. This was back before they started to over-dramatize the radar like they do today. I guarantee that storm coming into the area in the first local forecast had some loud ass thunder. Thanks for posting this. I grew up in the NYC area so this is even better that the locals are out of Kennedy. :)
haha completely agree. I loved that radar. In fact that storm on the radar was over my same house as I am in today. I'm wondering what the heck I was doing that day.
I used to watched the Weather Channel when I was my other Auntie's Apartment in Bessemer, Alabama in June 1994 when CJ got back his Disney's Aladdin on the Sega Genesis, after playing Sonic 3 on my cousins' Sega Genesis Console after me and my Mom moved to this Apartment for 18 Years until December 2012.
I’m from Omaha and the Mutual of Omaha ad around 8:00 is a dose of nostalgia. For the longest time the company had that Indian chief as their logo on their midtown building. After all the riots and political correctness in 2020, they changed it to a lion. I thought that was unnecessary.
Watching old commercials is both nostalgic, and makes me happy with my more modern advatages... like not having to pay per minute.
We were in the Baltimore area at the time, one year left before we could leave.
Crazy they put the wind velo map up for us with the tornadic flow. Shout out to little me right there in Fairfield County, getting pounded. I wonder if this was one of the very scary mid 90s storms I remember. We never get them anymore…too much southerly flow off the LIS crushes it for us so often now.
Shout out to random mention of O.J. Simpson trial cut in at @55:02
This was about two weeks after the infamous Ford Bronco chase with him and A.C. Cowlings ending with his arrest. The whole saga didn't end until the court case verdict - October 3, 1995!
Awesome. I’m happy to see the forecast for that day was from the same area I lived in. I was 8 years old and living in Plainfield (NJ) during that time. In the extended forecast I can see that scattered thunderstorms were forecast for that Sunday, July 3rd. I remember that day because that’s the day someone I knew drowned swimming in the Raritan River. There was a heavy thunderstorm that day with heavy rain and lightning that day when someone came running from outside and told us our friend had drowned. Thanks for the upload.
Dang. Sorry to hear bout that..
This was when life was good. 😊🎉❤
I miss the old TWC
Me too
Me three.
Me also. I started watching in the 80s. I found out later in life @jenxofficial's Mom went to school with Tom Moore. :)
I remember this particular line of storms coming through the lower hudson valley, I was on my way to see The Lion King with my cousin, lightning everywhere and it was windy as hell, went inside expecting the power to go out
and wow those storms were rollin thru fast. i lived in groton CT. when I see stuff like this I always wonder what i was doing that day n where I was what i ate etc etc
The song at 1:47:22 is mind blowing
The memories are flooding in
Does anyone know what the tune is at around the 29:00 mark? I remember that was one of my favorite songs on the weather channel when I was a kid and I have been trying to find it for years. I stumbled upon this video today and there it is!
When Summer Comes by George Howard
I was 16 years old in 1994. Wow talk about memories. And this is the only time I like watching commercials ! LOL
In 1994 I was 15 years old back then and the CLUTCH CITY HOUSTON ROCKETS WON THE NBA CHAMPIONSHIP BACK THEN.
I was only 2 when this aired but watchin this, the local 24 hr weather channel and tv guide were my escape channels.
Sir you are scholar and a gentleman!
I never remembered the old voice over for the older WS4000. I didn't get fully involved with The Weather Channel up until the late 90s.
2:09:26 *"MOVE TO HIGHER GROUND. TONGUE.."*
Erm .... uh.... what? 0____o
Lmaoo
I remember this one 1994
me too
ahh, the weather channel was so much better back then
Exactly you didnt have the kids that they hire tell you that you can slip on ice or not know North from South when they go live. Now they hire 3rd graders fresh outta school!
I'm in need of your prayers and positive energy. Please keep me in your thoughts.
Ahh the mild weather of the 90s
this + 11 @ night in 1994 + your 1 bed apartment + just got off work + a joint
Seeing This From 1994 Makes Me Feel So Old
Cue 37:37 1:35:28 1:59:54 2:24:27 2:59:35
After Pam Huff was let go from WVTM-TV NBC affiliate Alabama's 13 on June 24, 1994.
I wonder what I was doing at this time in 1994. I was 5 years old.
Getting Ready for my First Year in Pre-Kindergarten 1994-95 School Year.
To Make Room for Terri Merryman, and Kevin MacDowell for the 6:00 & 10:00 NEWS at the NBC Affiliate in Birmingham, Alabama and Mike Royer has to jumped from the Evening Shift to a Morning Shift with Fran Curry in 1994.
Always loved that Orkin Man commercial.
Caribbean disturbance would eventually go on to become Alberto; Alberto would produce ~$1 billion or so (1994 USD) in damage as a tropical depression due to inland flooding in the Atlanta metro area. Great lesson that you don't really need a hurricane to do significant damage to places.
Classic memories
Miss old weather
Nice!! It’s Wednesday June 29 today
