è Weather Program now available online

The television program “è Weather” on KUAC’s UATV channel 9.4 ended July 1, 2023, after 45 years of continuous broadcast.

è Public Media and the National Weather Service produce the program in Anchorage. è Public Media was unable to secure funding to support production, and the National Weather Service has not found partners to continue the program in its previous format.
