Programming Schedule
The following list was the channel's programming wheel (until October 2008). Note that some network segments had a different title at times due to a sponsor for the forecast such as State Farm Road Coverage, which replaced Coast To Coast Forecast.
| Time | Show |
|---|---|
| Top of hour-:04 past the half-hour | Local Weather |
| :04-:06 past the half-hour | Coast To Coast Forecast |
| :07.30-:09.30 past the half-hour | Local Weather |
| :09.30-:13.30 past the half-hour | Severe Weather Outlook |
| :15-:19 past the half-hour | Local Weather |
| :19-:21 past the half-hour | Plus Five Forecast |
| :22.30-:24.30: past the half-hour | Local Weather |
| :25.00-bottom of half-hour | National feature segment or affiliate report spotlight |
During severe weather, stations could choose to drop the national segments for news simulcasts or a constant radar display, with NBC able to show a local station's coverage nationally during the Coast To Coast Forecast or the Plus Five Forecast, depending on what part of the programming cycle the network was.
NBC Weather Plus also aired the "NBC Weather Plus Weather Alert," which interrupted regular programming for constant coverage of a weather event.
To fulfill FCC E/I requirements, NBC Weather Plus showed Weather Plus University on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

Famous quotes containing the word programming:
“If there is a price to pay for the privilege of spending the early years of child rearing in the driver’s seat, it is our reluctance, our inability, to tolerate being demoted to the backseat. Spurred by our success in programming our children during the preschool years, we may find it difficult to forgo in later states the level of control that once afforded us so much satisfaction.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
