Weather Channel to broadcast from Picher, Oklahoma

So the folks in Picher can take comfort in knowing that Cantore and a crew from The Weather Channel (66 on Cox Cable, 214 on Dish Network, 362 on DirecTV) will be in town Thursday and Friday.

They will be doing live reports from Picher during The Weather Channel’s Tornado Week programming event.

Cantore’s "Storm Stories” series will also kick off its fourth season with a week’s worth of new episodes airing at 7 p.m. Sunday through Thursday. He hosts the show that uses first-person accounts and archived footage to present the tales of ordinary people caught in extraordinary circumstances.

"I was in Picher last year, and everybody we ran into lost everything,” said Cantore, who is also an on-camera meteorologist for The Weather Channel.
