WPTA management finally blinked and reversed their decision to cut our radar. They realized they cannot ignore us when we refuse to let them gamble with our safety for the sake of their bottom line. Keep watching them closely because we will not hesitate to demand accountability again.

We are East of Ft Wayne. Actually 3 minutes on the Ohio side. We do not have cable service in our area. We have Satelite For Internet. This station helps us stay safe. Please reconsider removing your station. Thank you.
I agree 100%! We love in rural Noble county and need as much advanced notice of bad weather we can get. Our cell coverage and internet goes out in heavy downpours and so you are taking away our only backup. I use the radar almost daily as quick way to check on current weather conditions.
Many people rely on this channel for their safety. We do have members of society that do not have smart phones or computers. I don’t want to see the consequences of this decision as I believe them to be devastating and potentially fatal.
I am disabled. No car. I need and use your radar map to get the furtherst advance notice i can get on the weather so i have enough time to slowly get around to batten the hatches or to get away
I rely on this channel for bad weather days. My nephew is required to have this on when I am not home and bad weather is in the area. Not everyone has smartphones. Not everyone lives in the city with Tornado sirens. We are approaching Tornado season, please reinstall this channel in your lineup.
Thanks to PBS for adding a channel to their lineup and hearing the NE Indiana people!!!!
Please put radar back on. It's my only way to keep current on weather conditions.

This action was short sighted in providing information that is very helpful to your viewing audience. You should want them to be tuned in to your radar weather channel and not going somewhere else for up-to-date weather information. Please bring it back. The safety of your community is important.
