Was watching a "tornado chasers" truck live broadcast as the vehicle drove along an interstate somewhere. Too jumpy (road is bumpy) to read the signs to know where it was. I always like watching these live driving videos to try and fine a familiar landmark or something easy to recognize from our travels. Sky looked blue with a few fuzzy cumulus clouds, no tornadoes so far.

Is the weather channel currently FTA? I know that at one point they were on AMC-6 @ 72W but I haven’t looked lately.

I think their signal is encrypted now.

Yes, they still appear randomly in the NBC Mux on 72W. Sometimes they're there...sometimes they're not
